Plus, is the farm system proving its worth?
This Week in the Minors’ is our weekly look at notable performances from all over the system, from big-name prospects and less-heralded guys alike. The mission is to answer this simple question: “Who had a good week?”

The most disliked umpire in baseball is hanging ‘em up.
Longtime MLB umpire Ángel Hernández has reportedly reached a settlement with MLB to retire, effective immediately, eliciting relief and odes of joy among fans around the league. Having served as an umpire since 1991, Hernández has become a lightning rod for his missed calls and combative attitude towards players and coaches.
Royals fans observed Hernández in his full glory in a May 2021...
We went 2-1 in strikeout props on Monday to start the week off strong, and we're looking to keep the momentum rolling. Let's do just that with three more K props for Tuesday's MLB slate.

Houston, we have a deal.
This is a series that looks back at their trade history with each team in baseball. So far, we have looked back at trades with the Braves, Cubs, Diamondbacks, Orioles, White Sox, Angels, Marlins, Brewers , Rockies, Red Sox, and Guardians. Today we look at the history of deals with the Astros.
Total number of Royals/Astros trades: 14
The Royals actually engineered two trades with the Astros before they had ever played a game. The Royals...
The Chicago White Sox fire sale has already begun and will likely continue right up to the trade deadline. Here are three players who could be on the move.

Seth Lugo is nasty.
Matt Quatraro says Kyle Isbel has a small fracture in his nose but is available to play.
“The way I understand it, the bone just got cracked a little bit, but nothing that requires surgery or anything,” Quatraro said. “I don’t think there’s a need to wear anything [like a protective shield]. It’s almost like getting punched in the face when there’s swelling or a black eye. You’ve got to get it down.”

Simeon Woods Richardson will look to maintain his marvelous start to the season when he takes the mound for the Minnesota Twins against the Kansas City Royals in the second contest of a four-game series Tuesday night in Minneapolis.
Minnesota Twins manager Rocco Baldelli sure has some major guts.
Trevor Larnach hit a three-run home run, Jose Miranda added a two-run shot and the Minnesota Twins escaped with a 6-5 win over the Kansas City Royals on Monday afternoon in Minneapolis.

Close, but not close enough
The Kansas City Royals were down big, but kept the line moving to give Minnesota Twins fans some serious heartburn in a four-run ninth inning. Unfortunately, it wasn’t quite enough, as the Royals lose 6-5 in today’s Memorial Day game.
While the Royals have had really good starting...

It’s been a long time since we’ve had to worry about other teams in the division. Obviously, it is extremely annoying to go on an eight-game winning streak at the same time as the one team ahead of you in the division is going on a nine-game (and counting) winning...

Will this be a three-team race?
The Twins were expected to be frontrunners in the Central Division, having finished first in three of the past five seasons. But on Memorial Day weekend, they are looking up in the standings at the Royals, with both teams trailing first-place Cleveland.

You can’t win them all. But that doesn’t mean we can’t be disappointed.
We all knew the Kansas City Royals winning streak would eventually come to an end. That doesn’t mean the conclusion was any less disappointing in the series finale against the Tampa Bay Rays.
Sunday’s game at Tropicana Field was a neck-and-neck affair, with neither team scoring until the top of the sixth inning. Shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. finally put the Royals on top...
The 25-year-old was selected by Kansas City with the second-overall pick in the 2023 Rule 5 Draft but was designated for assignment earlier this week.
The Kansas City Royals placed second baseman Michael Massey on the 10-day injured list on Sunday due to low back tightness. In a corresponding move, the Royals recalled shortstop Nick Loftin from Triple-A Omaha.

Baseball’s hottest team looks to sweep the low-payroll, small-market Rays. Feels weird.
You saw that right. The Kansas City Royals, riding MLB’s longest active winning streak at eight games, enter Sunday with a chance to sweep the Tampa Bay Rays. Manager Matt Quatraro and bench coach Paul Hoover, both former long-time Rays, are pulling no punches against their former team. Kansas City has a +10 run differential in the series’ first two games, thanks to a...

We all expected Nelson Velázquez to be the hero of tonight’s game, right?
