I'm a die hard, and being from small-market Kansas City my expectations are way low. All I ask is for the Royals to be competitive like to play near to the .500 mark and I will continue to follow them daily.
...If they have a really bad team like a 100-loss team (which happens often) then yes I will probably need a new hobby like NBA to replace during those seasons

You gotta to really be pissed at the moment because the expectation was that they were a playoff team. But it looks like you struck oil with Melendez. Everyone in KC is pissed because they see it as another indication of our inability to develop young hitters, just like Ryan O'Hearn became an All Star after he left us for the Orioles. Same type of deal. Melendez and O'hearn both the power hitting guys the Royals were so desperate to have in the lineup and couldn't develop them.
As for Lugo. Yeah, I know he was your guy there in New York. I can't believe you guys also had Wacha, I never remembered Wacha being there I just remembered Wacha being good with the Cardinals. Wacha is one of the most consistent guys in the league, which is so under-rated and valuable in a starting pitcher. I wasn't worried about him. I was very worried about Lugo because we signed him to a big contract extension so I was afraid of him falling off. Unlike New York and L.A. the Royals can't afford to fail on a big money contract. And now Lugo is playing well and up to his contract.
Royals are clicking now on offense as well. Jenson and Cags the two young guys are both hitting. And our depth guys we picked up like Isaac Collins, Lane Thomas are starting to raise the floor for the offense.

yeah Wacha was only here for that one 60 game season in 2020 due to the COVID hoax
funny thing is I remember pretty much everything from that season because that's all we really had that summer

Royals were "rebuilding" that season and I don't think there were fans in the stands so I don't remember anything from that year—except the one game I attended they did a retirement party for Alex Gordon (of course the key moment they all talked about was his 9th inning game saving homer against the Mets). Royals stadium was about the only place you could go where people weren't wearing masks. It was outdoors and a lot of white Republicans.

yeah fans were not allowed at Citi Field that year either...they even had some kind of limit the year after in 2021 about how many people could attend...our announcers were doing the away games from our home stadium...the whole thing was pretty ridiculous
