@SasquatchVinnie Luke Farrell,
I think it was the last game I went to with my Papa. We went to the day game of the double header and he made his mlb debut/only royals game played. I remember his dad was the Red Sox Manager at the time and he made the trip to watch his son’s debut.
@Bfulk_10@JohnyJ_15 Agree on the value build up, hopefully the increase in value with him being a starter (hopefully quality and healthy) down the stretch would lead to a contract over $50MM+ to receive a Comp A pick instead of Comp B. I just don’t see Bubic getting over $50 as just a good reliever.
@potatospammer8@JeffPassan “Feels like”
It is a depth arm regardless, 40-man spot is easy to make with Bergert/Kudrna not on 60-day. Move adds insurance if an offer does come in early, as they have made moves early before (Chapman). Highly doubt he appears unless it’s a spot start and Spence doesn’t slot.
@Drizzy_Dru29 I thought that too and then you have Misner, Massey, & Jensen available to PH for Thomas if you don’t like the matchup later. Tolbert could have pinch ran for Jac which would have made more sense. Who knows, could’ve ended up the same but definitely felt like a clear mismanage.
@BHIndepMO Actually a great stadium. Ideally the Royals would incorporate a retractable roof at their new ballpark. Being at the K or d-town won’t change attendance. If the team is good, fans will go to either location. Only thing that would get more people to the ballpark midsummer is AC.
