Now onto the News, Rumors, and Commentary…
“Kansas City now leads the Twins by three games with two to play, meaning Minnesota will finish last; the fourth-place Royals can tie Detroit for third if they beat Minnesota twice and the Tigers lose their two remaining games to the White Sox. The Royals found themselves in last place 19 times; the potential of finishing in the cellar hovered over the club most of the season, and moved to the forefront Friday when Kansas City began its season-ending series with Minnesota just two games ahead of the last-place Twins. Jon Heasley was good in his third major league start for the KC Royals. The KC Royals, playing solid baseball early, occupied first place in the American League Central for the first few days of this major league season, then spent almost a week in second and third before reclaiming the top spot for three weeks.”
“Minnesota got a run back in the fourth, but the Royals one-upped it on an Andrew Benintendi two-run double in the home half. He has two more games to hit home run No. Minnesota got three in the sixth, but so did the Royals. Salvador Perez got hit by a pitch.”
“Because if the Royals want to improve next season, they’re going to need Dozier hitting like he was Friday. “That’s just a really good swing path.” “It just shows me everything I’ve been working on all year has shown up this month pretty consistently, which is good to see,” Dozier said. “It gives me that confidence going into the offseason that the things that I have been working on are the right things.” These past few weeks don’t erase the rest of the season for Dozier, who began the season with a thumb injury and spent time on the injured list after colliding with José Abreu at first base in May. But he’s made the proper adjustments, and I know he’s in a much better place in his mind right now, too.” “It’s pretty crazy how fast everything comes at you,” Heasley said.”
““It’s time,” Poldberg said. Poldberg has the unique ability to manage with the big league club in mind. “Just to see that smile on their face and the emotion that they’re going through, knowing they just made their dream come true, it’s the most special and most important part of the job,” Poldberg said. And the Royals trust Poldberg to set up the big league club for success, whether that’s day-to-day availabilities of players or making sure young players are ready to take the next step organizationally.”

“19), Triple-A Worcester Winckowski tossed six one-run innings in a successful second Triple-A start, with the lone blemish being a solo shot off the bat of Logan O’Hoppe in the third inning. 65), Triple-A Omaha Pratto has been a force to be reckoned with all season long and continued his fantastic season with his 35th homer in a 2-for-3 day, adding two walks, two RBIs, three runs scored and a stolen base. 2 prospect has thrived in 39 games with Toledo, boasting a .314 average and a .964 OPS with eight dingers and 30 RBIs. Tigers prospect stats » Royals: Nick Pratto, 1B (MLB No.”
