Guest Max Rieper: Kansas City Royals Wins, Woes, and the Pete Rose Question

It’s a full house on this week’s Royals Rundown as Jacob Milham, Jeremy Greco, and Royals Review's own Max Rieper team up to break down the latest with the Kansas City Royals. From Monday’s high to Tuesday’s low against the Astros, the trio digs into pitching performances, injury concerns, and the slumping bats of key players like Salvador Perez and Vinnie Pasquantino.They debate whether it’s time to shake up the lineup by calling up younger talent, question the current outfield options, and try to find answers for a team stuck in the middle of the standings.Then things get spicy as the conversation shifts to Rob Manfred’s Hall of Fame bombshell—what does it mean for Pete Rose, and is it time to rewrite the rulebook? Expect strong takes, spirited debates, and, of course, some snack and energy drink reviews to close things out.Join the team and ⁠watch along with Royals games LIVE⁠, only at Playback!Email Jacob directly at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.Need your Royals fix?
