Love the analysis, and I would love to be a fly on the wall during a Greinke 'teaching session'. I wonder if it would be part Dalai Lama, part Jeff Spiccoli...
Also, how can one BUY some of those dashing glasses? Inquiring wallets want to know!
Man that is a lot of pitchers - but reading your logic I can see it as well. There is an immense amount of 'position versatility' on this roster. If Matheny doesn't have a "pitcher scenario playbook" in his pocket, he's going to need one and it may look like a NFL Offensive Coordinator playbook.
The extension thoughts are something I thought of as well, but on the trade front it seems something would've gotten leaked at this point but who knows.
All good points on Grienke and the Grienke effect - some say it's worth 6 games lol. I didn't hear the whole story - what was it that he told Singer?
I came away from last season thinking Hernandez was the best of the young starters, so I'm a little surprised to see you speculating that he could start the year in the 'pen. Would love to see you expand on that thought.
As a displaced Royals fan (KS/MO 1951-1976, lived in RI 1976-2019, SWFL 2019-present) I have followed first the A's and from 1969, the Royals for my entire life. Really enjoy your Royals news/opinions and hope to follow them for a long, long time! Thanks!

Greinke wants to talk pitching and help the young guys. HUGE!!!!!

Maybe Zach will be the actual pitching coach and Cal can go away.
