Royal de Lux: A Kansas City Royals podcast

Is it possible for the Royals to have signed TOO MANY guys? Who would've thought that the good 'ol Kansas City Royals would be trying to make more Major League signings than anybody else. This may or may not present a problem with the roster, as Adam Frazier could take up a space that could also be filled by several other cheaper, younger and possibly better players, like Michael Massey no matter...

RIVETING OFF-SEASON DISCUSSION! SUCH AS: "will they trade mj melendez or not". FASCINATING!! The Royals finalize some 40-man roster cuts and I discuss some potential free agents that are still out there; most notably Zack Greinke. https://www.fansfirstsports.com/royal-de-lux/the-royals-won-the-drafts-worst-case-scenario/ New episodes every Monday and Friday! If you would like, please leave a ratin...

Yeah, YOU! I'm looking at YOU, proud baseball team. THE ROYALS HAVE OUTSPENT YOU!!! In a matter of days, the Royals have committed more than $100M to free agent signings, giving them a much better outlook for the immediate future. Could this terrible, horrible, no-good, very bad baseball team see a dramatic turnaround next year? https://www.fansfirstsports.com/royal-de-lux/the-royals-won-the-draft...

The Royals did some stuff at some meeting or something, and now they lose four spots in the draft. Great! They sign some interesting pitchers, talk about maybe signing other interesting pitchers, but honestly what more do they need to do when they just acquired the key to winning the World Series next year? Get ready for the comeback of the ages! https://www.fansfirstsports.com/royal-de-lux/the-ro...

I'm sure out of the many millions of people who totally listen to this podcast, there's a Royals employee who has the power to influence the rest of the team. So listen to me carefully: S I G N P I T C H E R S . I don't know who this Harrett Gampson fellow is but I don't want him thanks. The Winter Meetings are starting, so why don't you MEET with some PITCHE(r)S. Rule 5 Draft? Why don't you DRAFT...

IT'S TIME TO D-D-D-D-D-D-D-Discuss the downtown stadium some more. But before that, the Royals made some trades and got pitchers! Good ones!! Maybe!!! I know, I can hardly believe it, either. And all it took was Jackson Kowar. I'm sure there will be zero repercussions to this at all and I won't have to hear any silly comments about this man ever again for the rest of my life. Read my silly article...

I did NOT slack off over the last couple weeks! I was VERY BUSY writing AIRTIGHT CASES on how the Royals can totally sign Aaron Nola and acquire Jesus Luzardo. Read my pieces below! I promise they're not as completely stupid as I made them sound!! I have very good opinions on pitching, which is why Justin Steele is my Cy Young winner of choice!! https://www.fansfirstsports.com/top-5-royals-free-ag...

The Diamondbacks are in the World Series, which means that I was right about everything somehow. I've complimented this team a lot in the past and said the Royals could stand to be a lot more like them, and the case just makes itself more and more. Also, I look at the coaches and managers of the 2023 Royals and see how they did! (Hint: Not well!) Also a new stadium costs 5 billion dollars apparent...

F's in chat for this one, because we're talking about basically every dude who threw a baseball over a pitching mound at a Kansas City Royals game. Yeah, it's not looking good, fam. The Diamondbacks are going to win the World Series. New episodes every Monday and Friday! If you would like, please leave a rating and a review on your preferred platform, it would mean a lot!

A lot of things went wrong in the 2023 season, so let's do what's always most fun: POINT FINGERS!!!! ...Okay, not actually doing that, but sort-of. In a non-mean-spirited way, I judge each position player on the Kansas City Royals this season and give them some arbitrary grade based on how well or not well they played. NOTHING PERSONAL!!! I LOVE EVERYBODY!!!!!!! Except James Karinchak I do not lov...

It's over. The 2023 Kansas City Royals can't hurt us anymore. No more. The season is over, and maybe the career of Zack Greinke's is too. There's a lot to unpack with that, actually. Why is Derek Jeter the most overrated player ever? That's the kind of originality you can expect from Esteemed Royals Podcaster Michael "Lux" Farina. Anyway, I'm ending the season with a (not at all) flashy awards sho...

The Royals do exactly what they were absolutely NOT supposed to do: lose every game they played. If you don't like that, you don't like Royals baseball! It turns out the only thing that can stop Cole Ragans is a guy who, um, cannot pitch. At all. Also, Zack Greinke is really old so let's talk about that. New episodes every Monday and Friday!

We are so back. The Royals are now the coolest team that is friends with everybody, because they have conquered the Houston Astros. That's right, THOSE Astros, thus jeopardizing their playoff aspirations. You. Love. To. See. It. Also I'm back hi New episodes every Monday and Friday!

You may not have heard, but the guy with the best ERA and FIP and basically everything else since July 15 is a really good pitcher. And--get this--HE PLAYS FOR THE ROYALS!! NO WAY, DUDE!!!! Yeah, we gotta talk more about Cole Ragans because it seems like there's no shortage of things to gush over with this guy... and there's a dearth of things to talk about regarding everything else with the Royal...

Idk man. The Royals are bad what do you want me to say. Does anyone even read the descriptions? I just type in some silly stuff while waiting for the podcast to upload. Who are you? WHO AM I?!?!?!

If you thought the Royals were a disappointment this season, you should see the White Sox. And the Royals may end up having a connection to that, because our good friend Dayton Moore might be moving there now. This might not sound like a big deal, but given the timeline of that team and how the Royals have already discussed trading Salvy before, it only makes it more likely that he won't be with t...

The Royals attend to the usual affairs in Chicago, losing two of three to the Cubbies--at least, usual affairs as of late because this team is actually looking pretty good for a losing team. I love irony! One big reason for this is the emergence of some dude named Coke Ragans or something who has decided to just pitch better and throw 98 MPH heat about a hundred six times. It's cool when people ca...

The Royals are doing something they may or may not usually do: playing better in the second half. But it might be different this time... because I said so!! And whether or not we agree on that, we probably agree on this: Bobby Witt Jr. is really freaking good at baseball. If the Royals want to improve public perception, there's something they've got to do. New episodes every Monday and Friday! If...

All good things must come to an end, and they did on Saturday when the Kansas City Royals lost for the first time in more than a week. Then, they lost again on Sunday. Sadface. But they weren't terrible games so I'd like to go into a bit of detail about them -- plus a surprising talent pickup that could help? Could not? Why don't the Royals do things more??? New episodes every Monday and Friday! I...

Who's that amazing, young team with a 6-game winning streak? That's right, it's the 2023 Kansas City Royals! After putting up a competent series against the Twins, these Royals have utterly bullied the New York Mets into submission, almost putting up two shutouts in a row. ...Oh, and a lot of trades happened --sorry, I just got so excited to talk about the HOTTEST TEAM IN BASEBALL. Also, Bobby Wit...

The Royals have done something they have not done all year... WIN THREE GAMES IN A ROW!!! Sorry if that's a spoiler, it's just a really big deal. They probably have news and highlights of this playing in Times Square and Shibuya Crossing because it's so important. But what's arguably more important is THE FUTURE! The Royals have some players to trade, and trade they will! Trade they did! For 29-ye...

You know, we COULD have a normal description here, but is it really worth it? Is it worth going through the effort of typing out something serious like "Jordan Lyles pitched a decent game but got the loss as the Royals fall to 15-265 thanks to the 35th blown save by Taylor Clarke" etc. nah to heck with that. Let's just talk about some things no one cares about and are already irrelevant: commentat...
