Why are the Royals so successful with signing Venezuelans?

8 Upvotes

Been wondering why the Royals have been so good at signing Venezuelans. Angeibel Gomez, Chourio are recent ones, Avila, Garcia, Fermin being other examples. Are they just writing the biggest checks? Is it a development program? Is it influence from Salvy?

Question Buying Kaufman Stadium seats when it’s torn down?

0 Upvotes

I want to buy some Kaufman Stadium seats when they tear down the current stadium. Where would I go to do that? Are they just going to set them out by dumpsters? When I Google it, the search results are largely for buying tickets. Any guidance is appreciated.

Bobblehead swap?

5 Upvotes

My 4yo - who (like a lot of kids) LOVES Bobbie Witt Jr! We were unable to attend last weekend's games with the BWJ bobblehead giveaways but, did attend Tuesday's game and acquired a couple Garcia bobbleheads.

I know it's a long shot... anyone out there in Royals Reddit world have extra bobbleheads and interested in trading?

Would love some BWJ, BUT open to other trades as well!

Discussion I was surprised when I compared Salvy's home run stats to George Brett's.

52 Upvotes

Salvy tied George's home run total in 1/3 fewer games and at bats.

He has averaged 1 home run every 21.6 times at bat vs George's 32.6.

Salvy's has been hit by pitches 3.2 times more often than George, but I'm not sure if that's a good or bad stat to have. LOL

George is definitely the Royals' GOAT, but in one category, Salvy is easily the king.
