cmh6476 1,010 Posted April 3, 2022 Also, what happened with international signings? Will there be a draft? Much of the royals success in the last decade has been a result of success with international signings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RaiderHaters Revenge 4,243 Posted April 3, 2022 Padres add Manaea, and I am trying to figure out why? hes a good get, but it worries me cause it likely means Clevinger isn't coming along, or that Gore might be traded with Darvish-Musgrove-Clevinger-Snell-Martinez-Paddack-Gore-Weathers, it seemed like we had depth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would rather he play short but it’s fine, use him at the CI spot. Paying so much means he most Likely won’t be a keeper next year. I was hoping mid thirties.

cmh6476 1,010 Posted April 4, 2022 I just meant that dual eligibility is an added plus. You definitely want to get that anticipated production at the SS position if possible. The royals could potentiality have 3 of the top 10 or 15 SS in fantasy this year with Mondesi, Witt and Lopez. Probably won't pan out that way but our IF looks really promising.

TBayXXXVII 2,485 Posted April 7, 2022 Pirates just signed Ke'Bryan Hayes to an 8-year extension for $70M. If he pans out to be what we expect, that'll be a huge bargain. If he doesn't, someone will take him and the Pirates will get nothing in return for the salary dump. Odds are though, he'll more than earn that money.

Gepetto 1,291 Posted April 10, 2022 Are the Mets still paying Bobby Bonilla? I think that may have ended but can't remember; I'll google it. edit: Bonilla last played for the Mets in 1999 and last played in the majors for the Cardinals in 2001, but he will be paid through 2035 (when he'll be 72).

cmh6476 1,010 Posted April 10, 2022 This offense will be fine. And if pratto ends up at first this season, we'll have good glove caliber players at all 5 infield positions. The key is going to be pitching. I really like the value I perceive greinke could be too these young arms with a ton of potential. The outlook for the royals future is very bright Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
