Lesky’s Notes: Never say it can’t get worse
Watching the Royals day in and day out just constantly reminds me of Buddy Bell’s famous quote. Any time you think they’ve hit rock bottom, I just can’t let myself believe it because you never know what mess is coming around next. That sounds a lot more doom and gloom than I honestly meant for it to sound, but this week has been rough. And I thought it was rough a couple of weeks ago! Which I guess proves that point that it can always get worse. I mentioned on Twitter a couple nights ago on a day that I wrote my version of the clean house newsletter that what’s almost more frustrating is there actually is talent in this organization. I’ve heard some of the same things Alec Lewis wrote about a bit ago that other scouts would love to get their hands on the Royals young pitching. Many of the bats are at the big leagues or close. They need the help to figure out how to turn them into a good team, but I just don’t trust this current group to get there. And that’s pretty disappointing.
