• Weekend Rumblings - News for April 20, 2024Photo by Kyle Rivas/Getty Images To be blunt, the Royals are playing well! Before the game, Jaylon Thompson wrote about the return of Michael Massey. “He is still one of those players in a developmental phase in the major leagues, but we believe in his bat,” Royals general manager J.J.

• Singer, Salvy secure series, sweep stalls in successive standoffMelissa Tamez-USA TODAY Sports A doubleheader split but a series win. The Royals and White Sox split a couple of low-scoring games in today’s doubleheader, with Kansas City winning 4-2 in the first game before losing 2-1 in the second.

• The Cubs bullpen is not okayPhoto by Michael Reaves/Getty Images It’s going to be hard to win games if the bullpen can’t protect an eight-run lead Javier Assad deserved better.

• 2024 Royals season preview: It’s time to winPhoto by Omar Rawlings/Getty Images The Royals want to win on the field and at the ballot box Royals fans have seen their fair share of rebuild movements. Sometimes they pan out, like when they “flipped the switch” in 2011 with Salvador Perez, Eric Hosmer, Mike Moustakas, Alcides Escobar, and Lorenzo Cain, the group that went on to win two pennants and a championship. But more often than n...2024See more Salvador Perez injury status -
• The narrow path to 90 winsDenny Medley-USA TODAY Sports The path to the playoffs is narrow, and it’s unlikely the Royals will find it. Every year, I put the Royals’ schedule into a spreadsheet and follow a simple formula to create a path to a 90-win season: Win or split series at home. Win or split road series against weaker teams. Don’t get swept. I don’t figure in any sweeps and split all four-game and two-game...2024Continue with Denny Medley availability report -
• How does Nick Pratto fit with this team?Photo by Norm Hall/Getty Images The former first round pick is playing well this spring, but does he have a place on the roster? The Royals aren’t expected to have too many roster battles this spring training, but some performances may be creating unexpected competitions. Nick Pratto has been the talk of camp, turning some heads with his performance. The former first-round pick was disapp...2024See more articles Nick Pratto injuries -

• Royals spring training battles: The benchPhoto by Frank Jansky/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Will the Royals have more depth this year? The Royals began camp with a pretty good idea of who the starters were this year. Eight-time All-Star Salvador Perez will be behind the plate most days. The outfield will likely feature Hunter Renfroe in right, Kyle Isbel in center, and MJ Melendez and Nelson Velázquez splitting time between ...2024See more articles Salvador Perez injury

• Could the Royals be a landing spot for a free agent on a short deal?Photo by Matt Dirksen/Getty Images What better way to get potential voters on your side? Spring training is just a few weeks ago, but many top free agents remain unsigned. The contracts signed after the start of January are typically far less than the amount observers expect, as players settle for less money in the hopes of getting into camp in time.

• 2023 Cubs midseason grades
Photo by Michael Reaves/Getty Images Some things were good for the Cubs before the All-Star break. And some... were not. (If that sounds familiar, I wrote the same words in last year’s midseason grades article.) The Cubs stand seven games out of first place in the N.L. Central at the All-Star break. This still shapes up as a weak division that could be taken with fewer than 90 wins. One th...2023See more articles Michael Reaves

David Banks-USA TODAY Sports The infielder’s key two-run single gave the Cubs an eighth-inning lead. As most of you know, I have been critical of Nick Madrigal on this site in the past.

David Kohl-USA TODAY Sports The Cubs had some fun and breezed to win No. 74. It seems like a very long time ago when the Cubs defeated the Brewers 5-4 at Wrigley Field in the 2022 season opener, but in reality, that was just short of six months ago, the length of a normal baseball season.
