The season got started a bit slower for Frank Mozzicato than some of his peers in High-A Quad Cities. The 20-year-old lefty was the Kansas City Royals first-round draft pick in 2021. Since then, he’s worked his way through the system slowly. That’s to be somewhat expected from such a young and raw talent. Mozzicato…

That play has begged the question of whether he is worthy of batting leadoff for the Royals. As always, we begin with the basic…

According to Jon Heyman, the Kansas City Royals are among the teams interested in Chicago White Sox outfielder Tommy Pham. There is no indication that the Royals are in the lead for Pham’s services, but they have at least inquired about him. This is very unsurprising as it seems like contenders are always calling up…
