Jac Caglianone Heats Up, Bobby Witt Jr. Injury Update and Royals Offense Makes History
The Kansas City Royals won the series over the St. Louis Cardinals, but the celebration has a huge asterisk with Bobby Witt Jr.’s injury, and the conversation about player health in Kansas City is just becoming louder.
Jacob Milham and Jeremy Greco talk about the series triumph and what it means for a team looking for a good bit of momentum before the narrative rapidly turns to the injury news that has taken over the story. The headline is Witt’s return, but you can see Maikel Garcia’s hand injury through the broadcast.
On a far more positive note, Jac Caglianone has been nothing short of dominant in the month of June. They go into the kind of depth his power breakout merits, from exit velocities to extra-base hit production to what his trajectory these last couple weeks implies about his ceiling as one of the most exciting young bats in the game right now. Does he have a home run derby resume?
The Royals set a new franchise record for extra-base hits in a series and the offensive output that has fueled this team’s way through this run goes much beyond Caglianone.Tyler Tolbert, John Rave and other young depth players are showing major flashes, and Jacob and Jeremy examine what those performances could signify for roster construction both now and heading into 2027.
The episode wraps up with a tribute to the Negro Leagues and some Father’s Day thoughts before pivoting to an MLB Draft Combine preview, focusing on some specific targets the Royals could be eyeing as they prepare for the upcoming draft.
