Through 7 innings, the #Royals rookies are 8 of 20 at the plate with 1 2B, 1 HR, 3 RBIs, 1 BB, and 4 Ks. The 3 veterans are 3 of 10 with 1 2B and 1 RBI. How on earth can DM be respected when he didn’t want the kids to play in the first place? #TogetherRoyal

Nick Pratto has such a tremendous combination of a good eye and patience at the plate. Drawing walks above 10% in his rookie season is impressive. #Royals #TogetherRoyal

My biggest regret ever is not having real regrets. Like, how can I compare my so-so regrets to REAL regrets when I haven’t done anything REALLY bad so that I would have to regret it later? I just regret it, man.

@ me all day. Tatis Jr ain’t built on the sort of frame that would support the incredible musculature he’s developed. Can’t say I’m surprised.

Should we get a perfect game alert going for Gonsolin? You know, to let everyone know he’s throwing a perfect game? Or is too early to say he’s throwing a perfect game?

The juxtaposition of Vinnie and Dozier. The rookie goes 3 for 4 with a HR, 2B, and 2 RBIs. Dozier goes 0 for 4 with 2 Ks. Why is Hunter playing everyday?

The #Royals series with the Dodgers showed both how far away they are and how important Brady Singer is. In the Weekend in Review, I looked at the 2023 rotation, the weekend series and what's up next this week. insidethecrown.substack.com/p/weekend-in-r…

I always felt this 39-game stretch would be the toughest of the season. It’s 41 days and our bullpen is completely gassed. I said 12 - 14 wins originally before the stretch began. I could see 15 wins, maybe. And the Keller as a reliever experiment didn’t work. #TogetherRoyal
