Nick Pratto has been not so great over the last two years, but he is having himself a heck of a Spring Training. Will it be enough to catapult him into the lineup? I don’t know—Nelson Velazquez probably has the leg up right now. But a resurgent Pratto would mean nothing but good things for the Royals.
Also: that paragraph is liable to end up in the kind of “ope Kila Ka’aihue might be good” realm in a few years, but. It is what it is. Hope springs eternal in spring.
