They tested him in the 2 hole the other day and he hit a homer.

Don't be surprised if lineup is
Whit RF
Witt 3B
Salvy C
Santana 1B/DH
Benny LF
Mondesi SS
Dozier DH/1B
Nicky 2B
Taylor CF

I think the defensive positions as shown are about right.

I do think they'll start Witt lower and let him hit his way up the lineup.

You're probably right. They could just be batting him high to get him reps. A couple of live ABs. But maybe a 6 or 7 hole to start and flip with Mondesi..?

O'Hearn is hitting for power too-- I have said before: Hope they can deal someone and free space for Pratto. Santana maybe?

Yeah Santana is in the last year of contract here. Pratto likely starting 1B in 2023. O'Hearn has always kind of been a ST hero.

I’m too distant to pick up the game on the radio.

How can I pick up the game for free? For dummies.

Not a Royals fan myself, but pretty cool that they'll be out there for Opening Day.

Any of those an option? Next best bet might be trying to go to the KC radio station that has the games, is it 610..? And access online.

i access Lawrence 105.9 online live steam for b-ball on occasion…surely a similar option exists for Royals’ games
