As Kansas City Royals outfielder Jac Caglianone has been historic for the team this season, showcasing a bright future for the 23-year-old, he would exit Saturday’s 4-3 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays with elbow soreness, as a key update has been revealed. With Caglianone suffering injury scares with the Royals this season, it looks […]

The Royals’ Hot Dog Derby has been a famous, longstanding tradition at Kauffman Stadium. But a U.S. convenience store chain may have given birth to another equally beloved tradition. On Saturday, an inflatable hot dog did what John Rave’s game-tying homer or Kazuma Okamoto’s go-ahead single could not do. The fun crowd activity sent the […]

The Kansas City Royals may be having a season to forget, but their fans are certainly still having fun.
Jonathan Bowlan gave up another home run last night, leading to some discussion about his effectiveness. For me at least, I think he’s simply getting tired after a long season of being depended on as much as he has been this year. With Kansas City, he wasn’t used to being put into higher leverage spots […]
The Royals had won five straight series against the Blue Jays coming into tonight. No longer. A pair of costly errors, Kazuma Okamoto’s four-hit night taking advantage of them, and the Royals’ relapse with runners in scoring position led the Blue Jays to take the series. The Blue Jays won 4-3. As has so often […]
Blue Jays 4 Royals 3 The Jays are above .500 and own the last Wild Card spot. After the first inning, I thought this was going to be a high scoring game. The Jays got two in the first (it should have been more). Brett Bateman started the game with a single, but was quickly […]
Game Two with the Royals. Another blowout would be a good thing. Blowout in favour of the Jays, of course. Tiedemann is back, Taillon is on the DL. And the team is admitting that Patrick Corbin and Cody Ponce won’t be back this season. They need someone to start next Wednesday in Taillon’s spot against […]
The Royals have lost three of four games since September started. After a hot couple of weeks to finish August, some of us were dreaming about the playoffs, but their odds are back down to 0% after a recent peak of 0.2%, so it’s hard to even dream. Tonight’s game promises to make things that […]
Jaylon Thompson writes Daniel Lynch IV had mixed results in a loss to the Blue Jays Friday. Lynch got through five innings. He had more conviction in the final three frames as he didn’t allow a run for the remainder of his start. And the challenge now is to replicate his command and carry it […]
Blue Jays 9 Royals 2 Let’s get the bad news out of the way off the start. Jameson Taillon came out of the game after the second inning with right elbow discomfort. Why is it always the throwing arm that gets the discomfort? Oh right, because they are doing something very unnatural with the throwing […]
This game was out of control for KC very quickly. Daniel Lynch IV made his fifth start as a Royal, and the broadcast played an interview with manager Matt Quatraro who said, “I don’t think we’ve seen the best of him as a starter, yet.” I’m more afraid we haven’t seen the worst; the Royals […]
Stupid Tigers blow a 5 run lead. Oh well, just win Jays and continue to win and it doesn’t matter what the stupid Tigers do. Jameson Taillon is back up to start tonight. Tiedemann is back in Buffalo. I’m sad about that. Daniel Lynch the 4th starts for the Royals (didn’t he do Twin Peaks?). […]
One of the fun things about covering the Friday and Saturday night games all season has been that, on a week like this with one off day, if a good starting pitcher pitches on a Saturday, I get to write about him that night, and I know I’ll get to write about him again next […]
The Royals announced that outfielder Drew Waters cleared outright waivers and has been assigned to Triple-A Omaha. He has the right to elect free agency but the Royals didn’t say whether or not he would do so. Waters, now 27, was once a prospect of note with Atlanta. He was sent to Kansas City in […]
ARLINGTON, Texas — The Texas Rangers announced their 2027 spring training schedule on Friday.

The Blue Jays ended the Royals’ nine-game winning streak last week, but still dropped two out of three to the boys in blue in Toronto. They’ll take the series to Kauffman Stadium, with the Jays playing as hot as Kansas City weather, winning five of their last six. Toronto Blue Jays (70-71) vs. Kansas City […]

Jac Caglianone and Noah Cameron just became the first pair of Royals teammates to win AL monthly awards in the same month since 1985, and Jacob Milham and Jeremy Greco give the milestone its full due even as the season around it has slipped back into disappointment. Cameron’s August was more than enough to earn […]
The Arizona Diamondbacks expect Corbin Burnes to return to the rotation against the Kansas City Royals as they continue their push for a Wild Card spot.
With only a handful of games remaining in the MLB regular season, the Arizona Diamondbacks are locked in a heated battle with the San Diego Padres in the NL West standings as they push to secure a spot in the Wild Card Series. To aid that postseason push, the D-backs are expecting a massive shot in the arm with the return of Corbin Burnes fo...
Diamondbacks News (Arizona Sports) Diamondbacks’ Corbin Burnes expected to make return vs. Royals Burnes pitched two 1-2-3 innings for the Reno Aces on Aug. 23 and in a bridge camp game on Thursday. There was discussion of Burnes potentially returning from the injured list for the Diamondbacks’ weekend series against the Houston Astros, but manager […]
Max posted the big news yesterday. A pair of Royals were given “of the month” titles: Jac Caglianone, Noah Cameron win AL honors for August At The Star, Jaylon Thompson wrote about Caglianone: On Thursday, Caglianone was recognized as the AL Player of the Month. He is the 13th different Royal to receive the monthly […]
PHOENIX — The Arizona Diamondbacks are expected to get reinforcements in their starting rotation during their next road trip, and the return of a former National League Cy Young Award winner. I expect Corbin Burnes to make his return to the Diamondbacks rotation on Tuesday in Kansas City. — John Gambadoro (@Gambo987) September 4, 2026 […]
Despite falling behind early, the Royals fought back thanks to the arm of Michael Wacha and timely hits by Carter Jensen and Jac Caglianone to win the third and final game of their series against the Miami Marlins, 7-3. The win improves the Royals record to 63-78. Which means, of course, that the Royals will […]
Lately, I’ve been writing game discussions and recaps after unfortunate events. Last Thursday, I wrote the game thread the day after the nine-game winning streak snapped. Today, it’s following the end of five straight series wins. But that’s okay. Listen, if you were thinking that the Royals could make the playoffs during this stretch of […]
