The Kansas City Royals highlight of the day is Yordano Ventura dominating game 6 of the 2014 World Series to force a game 7.
One of the greatest performances by Yordano. I’ll never forget this one. RIP Ace!

Chicago Cubs pitching prospect
@DavidjohnHerz
was absolutely electric all year long. Of those who threw 80 IP, he ranked 3rd in K rate (40.4%) only behind Daniel Espino and Grayson Rodriguez. He improved his mechanics and CH to go with his CB. 📈📈📈

Low-key love this move. Seems light on paper, but Cole Ragans is a former first rounder. He has had two Tommy Johns. FB usually sits 90-93, T94. Plus CH. Makings of a starter.
Roni Cabrera is in his second DSL stint and still 17. Slashing .320/.469/.620 w/ a 18.8 BB% & 10 K%
And so trade season begins: The Texas Rangers, in pursuit of bullpen help, acquired left-handed pitcher Aroldis Chapman. Going back to Kansas City in the trade will be left-hander Cole Ragans and outfielder Roni Cabrera.

It doesn't get talked about enough, but Marcus Stroman (

I worked on my personal Kansas City Royals top 10 prospects over the weekend. I’ve got 2-6 at 50 OFPs.
This system took a bit of a bit with the graduations of Massey, Vinnie P, Pratto and others, but there is still a lot of fun talent in their farm system.

The Royals are making moves and apparently aren't done. Sounds like there is still a need for one more SP. If you had to choose, hypothetically, which move would you want them to make?

Another fun Kansas City Royals prospect from the 2021 MLB Draft is 5th rounder RHP Eric Cerantola from Montreal. Solid FB that can push up to 100 mph paired with an elite CB and average CH. You also gotta love the emotion he has on the mound!

Here’s Chase Burns complete start from yesterday, including all 13 K’s.
FB was 95-99 T 100 w/ insane carry & ride. Sat 97-99 early. Best pitch of the night was his SL (87-91), which he went to often late. Flashed a CH that hit 93 mph. Just insane stuff.

Being from Maryland, have to talk about Jake Yeager who’s a 2024 MLB Draft prospect. Been really impressed with his stuff in the videos I’ve seen. Maryland commit FB sits in the low-90s but can get it up to 95-96. SL is a good secondary. Physical makeup.

Seeing a lot of “look at Carlos Hernandez’s ERA last year! It was over 7. He can’t be good.”
He also wasn’t topping out at 102mph, sitting 98-99, and having carry/ride up in the zone last year like he is in the WBC this year. He was topping out at 96-97 and the FB was flat.

Brennon McNair is my favorite late round steal by the Kansas City Royals in the 2021 draft (11th Round). The upside is high. Very athletic SS with a simple swing approach that generates solid pop. Hit the ground running early in the ACL. Keep an 👀 on him!

He's at a 40.5 K%. Always have pulled for him in his career, but there just isn't a fit for him on this roster.
