Patience, Pasquantino, and Predicting the Next Royals Play

What can history tell us about the Kansas City Royals’ next move and when should fans expect it? In this episode of the Royals Rundown Podcast, hosts Jacob Milham and Jeremy Greco take a big-picture look at the Royals’ offseason, identifying clear transaction patterns from recent years and what they could signal about the club’s next move. From late winter-meeting signings to surprise trades, the duo explains why patience may be key for Kansas City this offseason. The conversation turns to Vinnie Pasquantino, examining how he views his own performance through the lens of modern analytics and what that means for his development moving forward. Jacob and Jeremy also unpack major stadium news, including the Chiefs’ move to Kansas, and what it could mean financially and politically for the Royals’ long-term future in Kansas City. The episode closes with a broader discussion on analytics and the state of baseball, questioning whether data-driven decision-making has improved the sport or stripped away some of its excitement. With doubles disappearing, triples becoming rare, and risk-taking minimized, the hosts debate how teams and fans should feel about where the game is headed. As always, the show wraps with predictions on what the Royals could still do before Opening Day, and why an unexpected move may still be on the table.
