[Joel Goldberg @goldbergkc]

Matt Quatraro says he will match up the 9th based on availability & situations short term, but still views Lucas Erceg as a ninth-inning option long term.

He says Maikel Garcia will be available off the bench tonight & hopes for a return to the lineup in Minnesota this weekend.

RE: Daniel Lynch at closer

The front office believes that Lynch is one of their best trade chips that they can sell this summer. If they thrust him into the closer role and he gets blown up, his trade value is tanked. That is a reason he doesn't pitch in high leverage. #Royals

[Chance Liebau @ChanceLiebau]

Matt Quatraro's biggest issue is that he believes too much of what he has SEEN, not what he is SEEING. He still believes that, because they've done it before, that:

Erceg can pitch in the clutch
Vinnie/Salvy can hit 3-4

And why it took him so long to give up on MJ/Renfroe.

[Chance Liebau @ChanceLiebau]

The Carlos Estevez hate is so crazy when you consider that James McArthur was closing games for the #Royals just 15 months ago. #FountainsUp

[Chance Liebau @ChanceLiebau]

Absolutely hilarious

[Chance Liebau @ChanceLiebau]

All of this just to have the bullpen get lit up immediately, lmao this team can’t get out of its own way.

[Kansas City Royals @Royals]

Have a night, Noah. 👏

[Chance Liebau @ChanceLiebau]

Starters only, does Luinder Avila have the best RHP stuff for the #Royals since Yordano Ventura?

His ability to throw both breaking balls (curve and slider) to both sides of the plate really sets him apart. I’m willing to listen to rebuttals! #FountainsUp

@FriendsFalcons @FriendsMBB You have to make Jerome Tang say no

#Royals offense in the last six games: 11 runs

#Royals opponents in the last six FIRST INNINGS: 13 runs

It’s hard to win baseball games when you’re playing catch-up for 8+ innings. #FountainsUp

@BJack125951787 They haven’t been top-15 in attendance in a decade. Including last season when they were 82-80. Including 2024 when they made the playoffs. Including 2016 and 2017 when they were .500.

[Chance Liebau @ChanceLiebau]

My favorite solution I’ve heard from Royals fans is “just stop going to the games and paying for tickets”.

They’re fourth-lowest in attendance. There were more Yankees and Red Sox fans at the K during the last homestand. No one’s going to games in the first place.

[Jaylon T. Thompson @jaylonthompson]

#Royals 3B Maikel Garcia said he felt a “pop” as he was rounding second base within his right hamstring.

He got testing done and is awaiting the results. He hopes it will be a minor grade and can return soon.

[Reggie James @HipCityReg]

It’s cool to care

[Chance Liebau @ChanceLiebau]

Which is also why they’re so adamant about moving downtown.

[Chance Liebau @ChanceLiebau]

Have a day, Carter Jensen!

[Chance Liebau @ChanceLiebau]

@Raysupblessed11 I was referring to a three-game sample set. Not the entire season.

Dick Howser could rise from the grave tomorrow, that team still gets their teeth kicked in because they’re soft as baby shit.

[Chance Liebau @ChanceLiebau]

I’d like to go on the record in saying that I don’t think it’s the managers fault that a team gets scored 31-2 in a three-game stretch, I think the team might just suck.

[Kansas City Royals @Royals]

Saturday starters.

[Chance Liebau @ChanceLiebau]

Last 11 years of managers fired before September (included Q just for comparison sake).

12 of 17 improved record
5 of 17 went above .500
2 of 17 made playoffs (PHI & TOR)
8 of 17 interims got hired
11 of 17 fired before ASG
2 of 17 interims had previous MLB managerial experience

[Brandon H. @BHIndepMO]

JJ Picollo emerging to give Matt Quatraro and the coaching staff their second vote of confidence of the season. #Royals

[Chance Liebau @ChanceLiebau]

@Raysupblessed11 What excuse did I make?
