Excited about the Royals this season

We made several upgrades during the off-season and got better at 2nd base, a legit lead off hitter, and signed a starting pitcher to replace Ervin Santana. The biggest upgrade though was #5 starting pitcher replacing Wade Davis with Yordano Ventura. We have a solid lineup from top to bottom. Mike Moustakas looks better this spring, and has a much better approach. Great time to be a Royals fan.

You still have Ned Yost.
Cancel the season.

I hope you guys do well, but yeah Ned Yost.
He'll get you guys to the next step, but that's about it.

Why do you think George Brett made an appearance last season in the dugout? Nobody noticed but after he took over as hitting coach (manager) the Royals had the best record in MLB in the second half. We no longer have a black Omar Infante > Chris Getz. Cardinals fans should be familiar with Aoki and he has been the best leadoff hitter for the Royals since Johnny Damon.

Yeah, I'm also not a big fan of Yost. That said, I am excited for this coming Royals season. The Royals should be pretty good this year. Although I did hear on the radio that the bull pen has been getting roughed up as of late. I don't really worry too much about pitchers in spring training because they could be working on a certain pitch and throwing it exclusively. Anyways, I hope that is all it is. We need our bullpen to be strong like it was last year. Especially on Chen days. Speaking of Chen, if he is still in the rotation after the all star break we are in big trouble and my playoff prediction is officially off the table!

We just claimed the #1 overall selection in Rule V draft from the Padres, and he is a lefty who had a 1.84 ERA in the minors last season. Maybe this means Franceisly Bueno is not making the team, since you have to keep rule V selections on the roster the entire season.

Meh like I said earlier, I don't trust spring pitching stats too much. They could have been throwing nothing but change-ups as far as I know. However, Herrarra does scare me. I wouldn't be that surprised if he doesn't finish the season in KC.

I wish somebody could point that out to Ned.

On the other hand look for Louis Coleman to assume the role vacated by Hochevar. Coleman is absolutely filthy
Last season

Yost said he is going to be a big part of the bullpen this season

If the Royals really want to win they need to bring back Jim Pittsley or Kyle Davies.

Good thing you replaced him with Wade Davies.
