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?

Yeah, for real.
I thought this season would be a big victory if we could flirt with .500 (77-80ish wins), but this is way, way better. [Reply]
I can't even muster an opinion about who I want in the playoffs. I'm just so fucking pumped at the idea of getting playoff baseball again. I've been in withdrawal for almost nine years. [Reply]
