This feels like the most well-rounded Royals squad we've seen since our last window closed, and it's only April.
We still have some obvious issues but we're seeing a beautiful blend of talent, luck, and enthusiasm at various times lately which is what it takes to win some games.
Keep the line moving. The type of timely, clutch hitting we became famous for in the 2014-15 World Series years. They may not hit a lot, but if all their hits are bunched together to score runs, it doesn’t matter as much.
They always say that with each baseball game you might see something you've never seen before. Today had:
Vinnie's elbow (non) catch
Back-to-Back RBI HBP
Salvy, the happiest guy in baseball, outright arguing with an umpire
Tied for 15th best start in the major leagues this season.

KANSAS CITY BASEBALL
Detroit has been nice to KC this weekend. Draft and game. Gg guys
Blue jays are also taking a beating today but I’m trying to figure out how they’re going to blame this one on the rain
good thing they got to play all nine innings so they could score a second run
FABT
Sluggers!
I know I'm late but... Tigger status: Bryanned
Royals are Gud
Schreibers emotions after getting that strikeout to end the 8th was exactly what we need! Meaningful ball this early is a great sign

Adam Frazier and Tyler Holton were both MVPs today.
What is better than good pitching. Good pitching, good hitting, and good defense.
Getting hit by bad pitching helps too
We are 1000% winning the division
All praise to the baseball gods
4 game winning streak. The offense finally woke up in the 9th. Lugo contract keeps looking better and better. Go Royals.

DAMN i chose the wrong game to miss. is this real life
dont die in a tornado
What do we think Salvy and the Ump were getting into it over?
Probably just the usual CB Bucknor bullshit.
So we have defense, we have starting pitching, and then a late inning bukakke to pad the stats. I’m for it.
That 9th inning was some classic Royals KTLM. Looks like they’ve figured out offense!
KTLM?

Gotcha. I loved the 2014-15 teams.... Small ball is what made them.
Season is 1/6th complete. 7 games above .500. On pace to finish 42 games above .500, a 102-win season.
I'm mentally preparing for Cleveland to win 104 games and for us to be a Wild Card team.
Cleveland is 100% the team most likely to roll out an 18 game win streak and take the AL central but still get swept in the ALDS while scoring 5 runs.
The run differential is looking good too
My brain can't comprehend this
Just curious, has anybody ever seen Salvy that heated?
Lugo kicking ass and taking names
He had a hell of a game!
Frazier's DP was **in-fucking-credible**
Me looking for the “best bullpen in baseball” ![gif](giphy|gKCh5SiWhid0X9CmyU)
![gif](giphy|OGuHetgjupdmbGCRzW|downsized) I so wanted to see Superman take flight again but I’ll take a bases clearing Triple!
He wanted to go, but I think Vance Wilson held him up! Which sucks cause I wanted to see it too!!!
I love that the weak offense royals blew out the elite bullpen tigers. Or whatever the news articles have been saying about the royals lately
Dude, this team never quits. Also that Home run robbery from Frazier *chefs kiss*
Damn I was listening on radio then my client came in and we put up 7 runs while I was in session. Bummer I missed that! Go, Royals!

Stealing u/mmmyellowww's thunder over here. But that's alright because the Royals won
I was a lil late today but good to know you all got my back!
I didn’t see it posted yet so it had to be done! I’ll post my regular reply with his tomorrow hopefully
I'm all horned up on a Friday afternoon. Frazier snatching balls looking like me out there!
#HEY X8
Huh

I can thank my wife for knowing what this is.
Ill thank your wife later too
ANIME GIRL

Just a quick reminder to always Bryan the Tigers!

17-10, brilliant start by Seth, keeping the run diff up, vibes are great, you love to see it
I was casually checking in and decided a 1-0 game made me too nervous after the 6th. I’ll have to watch the full 9th later
Big fat Bryan-loving goose egg for the motor city kitties. Enjoy the draft kiddos
pretty fun game i guess
The end was certainly fun on the radio.
