• 2024 Season in Review: Freddy Fermin’s regression was inevitable, but his value is still there

Dale Zanine-Imagn Images His power dried this season, but was still great behind the plate Freddy Fermin becoming a big leaguer at all was a bit of an improbability. The Venezuelan signed with Kansas City just past the All-Star Break in 2015 as an international free agent. He was already 20-years-old and Royals fans were surely thinking about different things when he put pen to paper. Th...2024

• What makes a successful MLB leadoff hitter in 2024 (and why the Royals care)

Vincent Carchietta-Imagn Images Get. On. Base. One of the oldest adages in baseball is that it’s a game of failure at the plate. Take shortstop Bobby Witt Jr., who won the batting crown this year with a .332 average. Even that means he “failed” more often than not. Yet no one would call Witt’s 2024 campaign a failure—in fact, he just succeeded more than most of his peers. Witt is just one ...2024
