Description

Rany Jazayerli (Co-Founder Baseball Prospectus/@Jazayerli) and Soren Petro (Sports Radio 810-WHB, 810whb.com/@SorenPetro) are breaking down the very latest with the Kansas City Royals. Should the Royals sign or trade Brad Keller? What is he and what is he worth? The Royals win a "bullpen game," why don't they do this more? Why can they develop a power bullpen but struggle so much with starting pitching? What's the plan with M.J. Melendez? Why is Carlos Hernandez still with the big club? And we wrap it all up with the Minor League Minute.(1:58) How important was Sunday's win for the Royals?(4:51) Developing young talent is still a question, but how does '22 compare to the '12 team?(13:45) Rany says the 2012 team was losing but had more younger talent.(21:30) When will the Royals accept the reality of Carlos Hernandez?(22:50) What should the Royals do with Brad Keller? Sign him? Trade him?(39:45) The latest on Jakob Junis flourishing away from the Royals.(42:45) Why can the Royals develop relievers but not starters?(51:34) Why not an opener? Gabe Speier looked great at it. Could he be the guy?(58:06) Rany shows why the Whit Merrifield games played streak is counter productive.(1:02:14) Do the Royals have a plan for M.J. Melendez?(1:06:30) Ryan O'Hearn is still playing for the Royals.(1:07:57) The Minor League Minute
