Nicky Lopez Getting Called Up
The Kansas City Royals have elected to call up 24-year-old prospect Nicky Lopez for Tuesday's game. The second baseman is one of the team's top 10 prospects according to pretty much every scout out there, and he has raked so far this year in Triple-A Omaha. Lopez has hit .353 with three home runs and […]
Jorge Soler Expected To Become Main DH
The Kansas City Royals are making a big move, and it will push outfielder Jorge Soler into the main designated hitter role.

KC has elected to call up top prospect Nicky Lopez, and that move could have repercussions across the lineup. Lopez is exclusively a second baseman, but […]
Whit Merrifield To Spend More Time In OF
The Kansas City Royals moved utility man Whit Merrifield to second base recently due to concern over the wear and tear of playing the outfield every day, but they've reversed course on that decision now that they've elected to bring up Nicky Lopez.

The Waiver Wire Watch List: Week 7
As important as it is to be active on the waiver wire, snagging that next hot bat or pitcher on a roll before anyone else can, let's be honest--there are only so many roster spots. That's why your watch list is just as important as your waiver wire activity, and perhaps even more so. Throughout […]

Sauceda's Slants - Six Hitters to Buy for Today's Environment
Pitching days can be pure euphoria — firing up the games to watch your pitchers (hopefully) mow down the opposing team for several innings.

A few weeks without a key player won’t kill a […]
