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?

I don't think our optimism has any effect on their record, so I'll continue to be an optimist until they give me a reason to not be optimistic. What fun is there in being pessimistic? [Reply]

I don't know about that. It's the way of the world nowadays but from a design perspective it's still ugly. But I hate almost all the ad patches that aren't anywhere near the team's color scheme. [Reply]
