Kansas City Royals Weekend Links: Butler & Hochevar May Face Arbitration, Bannister Heads to Japan
As noted on the official site, five controlled Royals (Butler, Hochevar most notably) still need a new contract for 2011. It's unlikely that any actually get to arbitration, but it is a possibility. As usual, lots of prospect talk as well, good stuff from around the baseball world, and an unusually...
Royals Top 60 Prospects: #6-1
You've waited, you've had sleepless night, you've dreamed of this day---who (or perhaps: in what order) are the Royals' Top 6 Prospects. If the Royals are to ever climb out of the deep dark hole they've dug, they will need some of these players to become stars--perhaps have one who can put up a few...
Royals Review Prospect Pulse: August
Sure enough, the List has changed this month with the additions of Tim Collins, Will Smith, Elisaul Pimentel and Lucas May. Only Collins cracks the Top 20, however. Several promotions this month: Moose, Hosmer, Lamb, Dwyer, Duffy (and others) all got moved up--and most did quite well. It seems...
So Let's Hammer Out This Sexist & Cliched Analogy About Moose & Hosmer
Thought #1: Wow, so like, Moose or Hosmer is sorta like the "Ginger or Maryann" question for Royals fans these days. At the very least I should tweet this. Maybe it's a whole post. Hmm. Thought #2: Could we take it further? I'm old enough to remember the brief but real "Aniston or Cox" query from...
Eric Hosmer Appreciation Thread
Trying to be more positive... Hosmer hit .354/.429/.545 in 87 games with Wilmington, and has done even better at NWA. He's had an awesome year. Let us show our appreciation. Hosmer or Moose? When does Hosmer make his MLB debut? What will his career peak look like?
Who Will Be the Royal of This Decade?
This decade, not next decade. Damn, it's 2010... So who will be the Royal of this decade? We don't have a clear candidate at this point. Zack Greinke: Will likely be awesome for 2010 and 2011 as a Royal. Although it's uncertain how much of the decade he'll spend with us. Joakim Soria: Has a...
Royals Top 30 Prospects: #6-1
We made it. Here it is: The Top 6 7 Prospects in the Royals system. I still plan one more post-next week-that will cover the state of the system and break down our prospects in some different ways. I think a couple of my rankings may surprise you. So feel free to make your case if you disagree...
Recapping my predictions for the 2010 Royals Prospects
Back in March, I gave my prediction of what the Royals Top 20 Prospects would look like at the end of the season. So before I start into my real 2010 Royals Prospect List, I thought I would look back and see how my prognostications went. I'll repost the article with my new comments in bold and...
Royals Review Prospect Pulse: September
The minor league season is wrapping up with some of the short season clubs already finished. The big news with this list is the ascension of Mike Montgomery to the #1 spot. I flip-flopped him and Hosmer but eventually decided if a list that is charting performance through the year is worth...
Royals Review Prospect Pulse: August
I know you were desperately wondering and hoping if there would be an August Prospect Pulse--well here it is-a little late but hopefully worth the wait. Well, it was an busy month for the minors in July. We lost Dan Cortes and Derrick Saito in the "incident". Eric Hosmer, Mike Montgomery and...
