The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly (Episode 129)

Kansas City Baseball Vault

The 2019 season hasn't gone quite as hoped for the Kansas City Royals. They've missed opportunities, blown leads, and generally, haven't played well.
But there are bright spots. The key parts of the lineup have been productive, and there are even a few very fun surprises. The starters have generally been effective (which has limited the bullpen).
But despite a recent strong run, the bullpen has been rough with a couple of exceptions. The bottom of the lineup has struggled. It hasn't been fun.
Slowly, though, we're seeing some relievers develop into trustworthy options. Some batters are coming around. And, as we discuss in this episode, the Royals are getting Danny Duffy back in the rotation, which should help.
SPOILER ALERT: In the last 10 minutes or so, we get on a tangent talking about Game of Thrones and the MCU. There are spoilers. We do warn you when that part comes up. Once that part starts, we don't talk baseball, so you can tune out and we won't be angry. :)
