David, if I may, I'd like to request prayers for the person I wish I could talk to about the Royals and this Dayton/JJ change right now: My dear friend, lifelong Royals fan and Chiefs studio broadcaster Art Hains.

Art is in critical condition in the ICU and on a ventilator. Doctors believe he has an immune system disorder. Art is an absolute titan of the radio industry and a man who's always helped young professionals, including yours truly.

I'm honestly not sure what I'd do without him. Just here hoping for the best for a man who loves Kansas City, the Royals and his family. https://sports.yahoo.com/longtime-missouri-state-athletics-broadcaster-184649048.html

Throwing money at qualified front office personnel is the only way for small market teams to compete. When you're paying Hunter Dozier almost $5 million per year, it seems like a no brainer to throw money at people that can identify and develop talent. I'm guessing that most of the candidates identified can be pried loose if the dollars are sufficiently enticing, particularly if the owner indicates that he will also spend the money necessary to obtain and apply the latest technology.
