The first batter he faced was Tiger CJ Cron. The first pitch Griffin threw registered at 92.9 mph and was swung on and missed. …

The Royals traded LHP Tim Hill to the Padres for RHP prospect Ronald Bolaños and OF Franchy Cordero tonight. Cordero has played 79 games in the majors over the past three seasons so I won’t dig too deep into his prospect status. Cordero has a lot of potential if he can stay healthy and in…

Yesterday, the Royals traded shortstop Cristian Perez for RHP Chance Adams. Adams is only 25-years-old but has had some tough times in his short MLB career. However, Adams is a former top-100 prospect who possesses four pitches and perhaps a chance to start. He was brilliant as a relief pitcher early in the minors. The…

The Commissioner is at it again. MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred cannot stop tinkering with the game. Personally, I feel he is making changes just to make changes. This time, Manfred has proposed that MLB cut 42 minor league teams and eliminate Rookie ball as we know it after the 2020 season. This proposal would eliminate…
