Entering into final month, can Royals keep pace and get into playoffs. They have a tough schedule ahead of them.
While Erceg has been lights out and an excellent addition at deadline, bullpen is still a mess.
Singer seems to be regressing.
I'd sit Garcia and play newly acquired Dejong over him.
@approxinfinity I love this idea, play UConn CBB at least once or twice every year.
KU women won their first game of the season under new HC, both goals were scored by freshmen.
Caleb W seems to be real deal, Bears have a bright future.
Nice win by US over Germany to advance to the gold medal game.
@wissox Man sorry to see Sox tumble so bad, 20 in a row.
Wow, what a finish on Men's 100m track, Lyles came from behind and pushed it thru to beat Jamaica.
US won after 20 years.
What a goal against Japan to get US Soccer WT advance
I am looking forward to plays with new kick off rules. Teams can now think and do a lot of things.
New NFL season starts today, so much excitement after some incredible offseason moves and draft.
Caleb Williams in Chicago, Aaron in NY, Texans loading up on young talent and so on. So many new lucrative contracts.
Let the commentary begin.
@Crimsonorblue22 Watching swim meets
I think several KU players got drafted in recent MLB draft
He is the only D1 QB I have seen that looked so elite while looking so mediocre in the same game.
Must be a big party in Spain yesterday with Alcarez winning Wimbledon and football team winning Euros.
Royals traded for Harvey from Nationals for bullpen depth giving #2 prospect Caden Wallace and #39 draft pick.
What do you think about this trade?
Also, whatever happened to Jordan Lyles?
As long as both parties love each other and are loyal, I do not think 8 year age difference should be an issue IMO.
Hope all remains well.
@Texas-Hawk-10 The reason explained as to why he slipped doesn't make sense to me.
Royals have forgotten how to hit, very frustrating to see them lose games when hitters can't score runs wasting solid effort provided by starting pitchers.
I read a story that Mario and Sherron have sued NCAA for making money and profiting by using their names, images etc. during NCAA tournaments. There are 15 or so other former players who have joined them in the lawsuit. They are asking for their share.
Let's see how this one shakes out.
This situation must be extremely challenging for Alex and his wife, wishing her full recovery.
It was nice to win series 3-1, starting pitching was very solid in the series.
I am extremely impressed with Guardians scouting, farm and development system, year in and year out they are in contention without signing expensive FAs.
I hope so
The season is long but I hope they don’t get into a massive gap to catch up with Guardians who are smoking hot and playing really well.
Royals hitting is getting into "awful" category.
They cannot hit and score Runs....
@Texas-Hawk-10 Hope most are playing pro ball and making some coin
Royals starting pitching has been grounded after a solid start, June has not been kind.
They have played high caliber teams in past few weeks but still just sayin.
You have to compete with the best to play baseball in October.
Royals got bombed big time by Bronx bombers at the K
@BShark Get Vermont raw honey as well
I like it.
I think they need to strengthen bullpen and add another outfielder/bat to catch up Cleveland.
@rockchalkjayhawk BJ Thompson, got cardiac arrest
Royals are back to doing Royals types of things.
Bullpen is a mess.
Lower batting order cannot find a hit.
@dylans The way he said it came out very insulting and demeaning for women and marginalized communities.
Thats a valid point Farmer, I was not aware.
Hope these players go through some sort of training in their rookie years, its unbelievable.
Putting such a black eye on the franchise.
@dylans Sorry I had meant Smith, LT last year who I believe is still FA.
Veatch better get on the phone and call Taylor's agent.
I see a suspension coming
Interesting comments by Harrison B
Royals are half a game behind first place Indians.
Are they legit or an aberration?
I think starting pitching is solid but hitting is mediocre, need much better production from outfielders.
Bullpen is so so, can definitely use an upgrade.
I am enjoying the ride tho, hope they can continue on the winning path.
@rockchalkjayhawk Damn, something I did not want to hear and see.
@bskeet I posted in another thread arguing that physically he is not ready to play in NBA, look at his age, weight and physical strength, he is not ready for NBA's brutal rigor.
It is known that real money is made in 2nd/3rd contract.
He can get picked in mid to late first round, but he will most likely be warming the bench or playing in G league.
After a few months he may be traded and move around before disappearing.
His parents seem to be doing well in the sense that he does not need money right away to support them, so even without NIL he can wait to get real money and get drafted much higher and have a longer NBA career.
@BShark The question is whether to get instant gratification or have a long NBA career. Real money is made in 2nd/3rd contract.
He can get picked in mid to late first round, but he will most likely be warming the bench or playing in G league.

He has great potential, with another year in college he will be much better prepared to have a solid foundation and decent NBA career.
I think he should return mainly for physical improvement and strength.
His physical strength and stamina are no way near rigorous demands of NBA, he will be bullied around.
He will look little kid a playing with Big Dawgs.
How would you grade Chiefs draft picks.
I give it B+
Great news about Reid.
I had read that Roy did not want to ruffle any feathers and deliberately did not recruit in UNC territory. It used to bother me, but I have moved on.
@approxinfinity They are getting very highly rated class, they are becoming similar to UK
Good article on Puni's fit with Chiefs, I'd love to see him get drafted and become a Chief.
Will Smith has been a disappointment so far, cannot get outs.
