Shockwaves in Baseball: Why One Analyst Calls the Royals’ Latest Move ‘Irresponsible’ and What It Means for the Future
So, here we are again with the Kansas City Royals — coming off a playoff run but stumbling into the new season like a kid who forgot his glove at the first base dugout. Sitting fourth in the AL Central isn’t exactly what the fans hoped for, and the biggest culprit? A lineup that’s quieter at the plate than a library at midnight, clanking in just 34 homers to trail the majors by a wide margin. Enter Jac Caglianone, the power-hitting prospect they finally called up, sparking excitement but also a heap of controversy. CBS Sports’ David Samson didn’t mince words, labeling the move “irresponsible” — a bold jab considering the Royals aren’t exactly rolling in payroll cash and need to hold onto their talent for dear life. But hey, can you blame KC for wanting some thunder in the lineup right now? The clock’s ticking, the fans are itching, and maybe the risk is worth the reward… or is it?
