Let’s make a Kansas City-themed Royals home run celebration

The 2026 World Baseball Classic has been great viewing for my baseball-deprived soul. I really struggle to pay attention to or care about Spring Training games, unless there is a pitcher’s velocity drop to freak out about. Mix that same baseball with a dose of patriotism and nationalism, however, and I’m all the way back […]

2026 MLB Team Preview Series: New York Mets

It’s been 11 years since the Mets last won the division, coincidentally the last time they made it to the World Series, losing to the Royals in five games. A historic second-half collapse saw them plummet from division leaders to being dumped out of the playoff picture entirely with a loss to the Marlins on […]

Royals vs. Mariners Spring Training thread

With their best players playing elsewhere, the Kansas City Royals are 6-9 (nice). And in today’s contest, they’ll face a team with a worse Spring Training record: the 4-12 Seattle Mariners. It’s the Battle for Grass Creek, in other words, but a preseason version. The Royals will send Cole Ragans to the mound. As a […]

The bottom of the Royals’ lineup can’t be that bad again… right?

Impatiently waiting for the real season to start tends to make me overly optimistic about everything. That is how I found myself looking for some way to figure out how many more runs this team will score relative to last year’s offense. In the end, I did not completely change my opinion, but I am […]

Cleveland sends Parker Messick to start. Messick is […]

What Royals non-roster player is most likely to make this team?

In just two and a half weeks, the Royals will begin the regular season in Atlanta. We know most of the players that will make up the roster for that game, but a few players are fighting for the last few spots on the roster. Some of them are MLB veterans in camp as non-roster […]

Hot or Not: Royals Spring Training Edition

With a little bit more than two weeks of Spring Training down, we’ve got a little bit less than two weeks of Spring Training left before they break camp and begin the slow journey to Opening Day. They’re in Arizona, and it’s enduring an unseasonable heat wave, so everyone is literally hot, but it’s time […]

White Sox extend winning ways, edge Royals, 5-4

The White Sox and their spring winning continued on Sunday, as they picked up their 10th win of the preseason with a 5-4 showing against Kansas City. Perhaps feeling the heat after I so boldly declared prior to the game that he was “rapidly …” Jarred Kelenic got the South Siders on the board with […]

Game Thread: Royals (6-7) at White Sox (9-7)

The back end of the Sox rotation is still up for grabs, but the staff in Charlotte is starting to take shape. The White Sox announced Saturday that righthander Tanner McDougal had been optioned to Triple-A, while lefty Noah Schultz was sent over to minor league camp. They’ll presumably join David Sandlin, Duncan Davitt, and […]

Jonathan India turned around a 94.3 mph sinker in a 2-2 count, launching it 392 feet over the left field wall for a leadoff dinger in Saturday afternoon’s Cactus League outing. It was precisely the kind of thing that made Cincinnati Reds fans smile for most of four seasons, the 2021 National League Rookie of […]

Spring Training game thread XIV – Reds at Royals

The World Baseball Classic is in full swing now, but Spring Training soldiers on with those left behind. Sure, Harry Ford continued his weird dominance of the event while Shohei Ohtani continued to do very Shohei Ohtani things, and Oneil Cruz still hits a ball harder than anyone when he can make contact. Seth “Quarterrican” […]

Kansas City Royals news: The World Baseball Classic begins

Jaylon Thompson writes about the approach of new hitting coach Marcus Thames. Thames said he maintains open communication with players. He said he asks questions and focuses on their given strengths. His goal is to not suggest changes, but rather to elevate a guy’s particular skill-set. “For me, it’s all about players understanding who they […]

Spring Training game thread XIII – Royals at Dodgers

The World Baseball Classic is in full swing; I’m watching Mexico try to finish off Great Britain as I write this. But there are still players left behind in Spring Training who are still competing for jobs and Mitch Spence is one of those. The Royals traded for the righty just as Spring Training was […]
