Diamonds in the Rough 5-1-18
Commentary I see quite a bit lately that fans are already tiring of watching Jon Jay, Lucas Duda and a few other veterans while asking to see some young guys in their place. I don’t understand that line of thinking as someone who watches the “young guys” every night. Who are you wanting to watch play? […]

Spring Training Impressions
The Opening Day roster comes attached with quite a bit of fanfare, but I think the attention placed on it is generally pretty overblown. Sure, those who make it are the ones who get to step forward and wave to the crowd before the first game when their name is announced, but just because a […]
Play The Kids
If it were me, Ryan O’Hearn would be the Royal tasked with replacing Eric Hosmer. And while that in itself would be enough to be getting on with if you’re O’Hearn, there’s Nick Pratto nipping at your heels and really, aren’t first basemen the most interchangeable pieces on a baseball chessboard?
