Owner Goals
Team Record:
Winning sure feels good and you have been doing a lot of it during the first half of the year. Don't stop now! Get the guys to keep it up, so we can hit our preseason goal of making the playoffs.
Upgrade a position:
Bob Crimi has definitely improved -- so much so that he's solidified the team at First Base. Is he in the top-6 at the position? Maybe not, but he's raised his level of play, nonetheless.
Improve your team record:
I was hoping for better results in road games. Please keep working on it.
During our time working together, I have been good with your progress towards the goals I have set out for you. Considering your current and past successes, I am happy with your overall performance. It's important to have success on-field and in the boardroom, and you seem to be on that path.
The final evaluation towards these goals will come at the end of the season. Good luck in the second half!
Prospect Performance
2039 Draft
The Royals picked 30th in the 2039 draft and went for the best College player left to them as they picked up Catcher Zach Herr. Herr is an elite defensive catcher with a potential to combine an above average eye with plus power.
The Royals played safe with their second-round pick then took chances of high school players with the rest of their bonus picks.
Round 2, Pick 31 - SP Chris Kern, age 21 out of college (Sacramento State; Sacramento, CA)
Round 3, Pick 25 - 2B Eddy Cordero, age 17 out of high school
Round 4, Pick 27 - SS Kelington Raw, age 18 out of high school
Round 5, Pick 28 - C Zach Riendeau, age 18 out of high school
Three pitchers, the 13th, 14th, and 20th round picks, will start in A ball while the rest of the class will start in Rookie ball. All 20 drafted players signed with the Royals in 2039.
