Did you have fun watching the Chiefs play for the last 21 weeks? Awesome, me too! Going to two consecutive Super Bowls is incredible, especially for a city like Kansas City, and there is no athlete on the planet right now who is more awesome than Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. It is the greatest pleasure…
This will be a two-week update. The Storm Chasers finished up their series with the New Orleans Baby Cakes (Marlins) with back to back wins, and take the series 3-1. The Memphis Redbirds (Cardinals) then came to town for a three game series in which the Storm Chasers finished 1-2. Then they took a road…
MLB Debut: Josh Staumont Staumont was drafted as a hard throwing project out of Azusa Pacific University. Everyone agreed the fastball command needed work and the secondary stuff needed to develop. He was a thrower, not a pitcher. Now, with most of that behind him and much better off speed pitches, Staumont made his MLB…
Ryan O’Hearn is on fire in Omaha To say that Ryan O’Hearn has been struggling in Kansas City this season would be an understatement. Remember July 31, 2018 when he was called up to make is MLB debut? In his second MLB at bat, O’Hearn hit his first home run, and didn’t seem to slow…

The Storm Chasers finished the first half of the season with a 42-48 record, which was good enough for second place in their division behind the Iowa Cubs. The Chasers had a nice three day All-Star break, and were represented in the game by Bubba Starling. Once the All-Star break was over, the Storm Chasers…

His road to the majors was a long and tough one but many Royals fans can now celebrate his arrival. Royals Trade Bailey for Kevin Merrell The Royals made…
Homer Bailey trade scenarios (yeah, I’m doin’ this) I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I think someone is going to trade for Homer Bailey. It seems crazy to say since he was a train wreck of injury and ineffectiveness for four years, but he’s found some glimmer of his old self in Kansas City.…
To the amazement of many, Ryan O’Hearn was called up by the Royals on July 31, 2018. In the social media universe there was a lot of concern, with many asking, “Why O’Hearn over Frank Schwindel?” After all, O’Hearn was having a very lackluster season in his second year at the AAA level. In 100…

This spring has been really harsh for the Royals. There has been an lack of offense and terrible bullpen pitching. We all knew it would be a rough year and the projections for the Royals were not very good. You may be able to blame the weather for some of it as they have had…
Spring Training is over and baseball is happening all over the country. Well at least Major League baseball is happening and soon Minor League baseball will be happening too. The Royals recently released their minor league rosters so today we will be taking a look at my favorite Royals Minor League club, the Omaha Storm…
