​All-Star Week is almost here, the MLB Draft is just around the corner, and the Kansas City Royals have plenty to discuss on both fronts. Jacob Milham and Jeremy Greco bring the energy as they cover everything from the Home Run Derby to draft strategy, including a historic hitting streak led by an unlikely source. Jac Caglianone is preparing for his first-ever Home Run Derby, and we celebrate the power breakout that has dominated his recent stretch. We break down his projected home runs, his raw power profile, and how he would stack up against the rest of the Derby field. Hunter Goodman’s case for an invite is debated as part of a broader conversation about the trend of players declining Derby participation and what that could mean for the event’s future.
Tyler Tolbert’s historic hitting streak stands out in the latest Mets series recap. Jacob and Jeremy contextualize his run within baseball’s record books, even as the series results themselves were mixed and defensive errors continued to be a problem. With the Royals holding the sixth overall pick, we dive into the ceiling-versus-floor debate that informs every draft strategy discussion, evaluate specific prospects who could be in play, and outline what the organization should prioritize given the franchise’s current position.
