Year Two of the Matt Quatraro tenure. Time to take a step up this year. Active in free agency and trades this offseason. A new look pitching rotation and bullpen. Will the young players take the leap up offensively? Bobby Witt extension? New stadium? Will Vinny recover from injury? Salvy taking aim at the Royals record book? Will Cole Ragans turn into the best Royals starting pitcher since Greinke 1.0?

The Milwaukee Brewers are acquiring Frankie Montas from the Cincinnati Reds, a source tells ESPN.
First-place Milwaukee adds to its rotation with one of the best starters left on the trade market in an intradivision deal. @ByRobertMurray was on the news.

Yarbrough was designated for assignment by the Dodgers on Monday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Advice: Yarbrough will be placed on waivers and if he goes unclaimed, he'll either report to Triple-A Oklahoma City or elect free agency. He is the odd man out on the major-league roster after the team acquired infielder Amed Rosario from the Rays via trade Monday. Yarbrough has produced a respectable 3.74 ERA and 1.14 WHIP with 39 strikeouts over 67.1 innings in 32 appearances with Los Angeles this season
BWJ is so damn humble and quiet it’s incredible. He’s not cocky, doesn’t bat flip, doesn’t do anything over the top, just keeps his head down and plays ball. Very lucky to have him on our team….. obviously. But the intangibles are amazing. He even supports his teammates at every chance he gets. [Reply]
