More of 2013 feel. With younger (thus more of a variable) pitching. 2013 was a great year. Led me to watching 152 regular season games in 2014. And 160 in 2015. I'm ready.

Thought exact same. This has very 2013 vibes. Team on the brink of contention.

Think just need a bit more pitching depth in rotation, but that’s coming.

Lineup is top notch.

A top 10 MLB lineup, I’d say.

That's a very 2016 Royals fan thing to say.

The pen will have a say in what nostalgia we enjoy. Excited to see it.

Just want to be in a position where we are buyers. Responsible buyers.

I hope so! But we really have no idea. They don't make golf majors out of drive, pitch and putt contests, you know?

[Sparko]

The talent is there with maturity. Witt is a throwback player. Just hoping he is more Brett than Hurdle

I heard a comparison to a young Barry Bonds.

As I've said for a couple years now, Kansas City is currently Mahomes drunk.

Let it ride!!!

We aren’t drawing into an inside straight though. We have two high card pairs and not a lot of other face cards showing on the river. All in.

Obviously a small sample size, but this has to be the first time the team has indicated they are eager to bring someone up, and 75% of the fans are begging the team to give the player more time in the minors.

[CrimsonNBlue]

Lol. We found 154 of nicky’s family and friends.

Yount might have had a Chris Colon trajectory with some of those folks.

Salvy 4 year deal. Team option. Average of 20.5M per year.

Yikes, why? Really high for an aging catcher. I love Salvy, and he got screwed on his earlier contract, but extending him four years at $20mm+ per seems like a bad move.

Basically matched Yadier Molina’s deal prior to this last deal. He was 3/60 for years 35-37 and Cards didn’t mind. Molina is a HOF obviously, but Salvy has been good when healthy.

See a lot of DH in his future when Soler leaves.

Cards have more money to spend, and Yadi is a freak of nature. Salvy been having health issue and is a big guy to squat for 140 games a season. Also, don't want to be spending $20mm for a DH.

Salvy at first base.
