I know a lot of Chiefs fans want to trade for Tyreek, but if the Dolphins end up selling off players I’m calling about that DLine! Talkin about any position on that front. Especially Jaelan Phillips. I know he comes with injury concerns but he is set to be a free agent at the end of the year.

Bo Pix… …had to! #ChiefsKingdom

🚨🚨🚨NEW EPISODE🚨🚨🚨 We dig into the Carter Jensen-Jac Caglianone thing. We also discuss last week's games, including the rough Tigers series, and what the Royals should do with the pitching in September. It's a great episode! Available everywhere, including ... YouTube: youtu.be/508oOu3R69o?...

Things I would like to see from the Chiefs: 1. Pick up a RB before the first regular season game (let Mitchell go) 2. Somehow find out a way to keep and play Thornton, Brownlee, and Remigio (tough if everyone is healthy and Rice suspension hasn’t come down) 3. Someone step up to provide some

Jac's on the board! MLB hit No. 1 is an RBI double!

Great day for 2 baseball games!

Skeet AWAY…Skeet away!

This is exactly how this should happen and if NBC shows the qualifier then they can just start printing money cuz that shit will be HUGE.

A fine Wins-day. #HEYHEYHEYHEY

Down on the Farm: Week 7 If you follow the Royals online, you are perfectly aware of one player in the farm system this week. We’ll certainly cover him here, but he wasn’t the only impressive player in week seven of the season. The top three… https://farmtofountains.com/down-on-the-farm-week-7/

RIP to a real one 🍻

I still ask for this for my birthday every year. I’m 39 years old.

Reminder for people looking for more #KCRoyals content that we got all you can handle at royalsweekly.substack.com. Marc and I do 2 extra pods a week and AT LEAST 1 piece of written content as well. Great value for just $5/month. It's a little wacky, it's a little crude, but it's always insightful.

Disappointing to not see Loftin in there. I guess there was no room considering how hot this lineup has been. 🤔

If you are a person who wants an easy way to understand the totality of our current president's economic policies, this is a good read for understanding that. I realize it is an opinion piece, but it lays out the basic absurdity well.

My thoughts on the Chiefs Day 2 draft: Norman-Lott: don’t love it. Would have preferred Alexander. He does nothing against the run and I’m not sure if the pass rush translates Gillotte: like the player. Thought that was a little high for him. Good athlete but short, thick frame. Short arms. Cont.

I started looking at the draft the week before the Super Bowl. This is the guy i immediately wanted. Home Run! And they got a free 5th rd pick too.

Sometimes people will ask me why I enjoy the NFL Draft so much. This video gives a great explanation.

Be still my beating heart. Bring this man to KC!

I just wrote a piece on Nick Loftin for the Substack ($). It attempts to understand if his new found line drive rate (so important to his success) is more or less likely to be a consistent thing for him. One of my favorite I've ever written. Check it out!

🧵I've been thinking about Nick Loftin as a potential call up to help this atrocious #Royals offense, and I want to make the case for and against Loftin. The case for Loftin: What aren't the #Royals doing well offensively? Well, they aren't doing anything well really. But what they REALLY aren't

We've got two new ep. out today for Substack subscribers: 1) A midweek episode focused on the Yankees series, the #Royals defense, and some call ups who could help the offense. 2) A Mike's Drop ep previewing the Tigers series, digging into X factors, and some gambling stuff. shorturl.at/UZDQQ

A look at some early standouts in the Royals farm system:

This is like when Neo went to find the Architect. This squirrel is The One.

Top performers today down on the farm:

The first three RBIs had a combined exit velocity of 76.9 MPH and an xBA of .080. If you're convinced you'd seen last night's #Royals game in reverse against the Twins before, I can't argue. I wrote about the soft contact, Isbel's bomb and Lorenzen's excellent start.

#HEYHEYHEYHEY The #Royals pull off a come-from-behind victory! It wasn't pretty, but they got just enough from India, Salvy, Garcia, and Bobby to make the difference.

The only way to start #OpeningDay.

An interesting tidbit -- OPS when he pulls the ball in the air vs. not pulling it in the air (center or opposite field). pulling in air- 1.723 not pulling in air- .732 Worth the $5 subscription alone! open.substack.com/pub/royalswe...

This is great news, but let's hope he doesn't rush back too soon. Hamstrings are tricky, and they need Vinnie for the long haul.

🧵The interesting question now for the #Royals is what happens with MJ Melendez and Hunter Renfroe? Would they really carry three all both+Canha on the roster? That feels wasteful considering none play CF. If I had to guess, I’d say they may have already found a taker for Renfroe. They’ll probably

Well the #Royals finally got an outfielder. Good on base but pretty long in the tooth and virtually 0 power. .344 OBP last year

Two #Royals games on today! 👍 Neither is televised 👎 (File this under "MLB Doesn't Want Fans")

This is a good move for both sides. Lets the team go either tackle or interior DLine at 31. Dark horse would be receiver or running back but my money is on a tackle if one falls or interior DLine if one doesn’t.

Marc brought the Pod to BlueSky!!! Gives us a follow @royalsweekly.bsky.social for #KCRoyals content. It truly is the bees knees.
