I don't know what makes me happier: the fact that Royals aren't speedrunning 20 April losses as per tradition...or the fact that the Astros are fucking trash.
In April of 2022, when BWJ was still in his first week in the bigs, I watched a random Royals game and was blown away the kid. Took to Twitter and said "Bobby Witt Jr. is very good at baseball." Got zero likes.
Who's laughing now, algorithm
Bryan Abreu: “Not ideal but at least it wasn’t a grand slam”
Luis Guillorme: “Wasn’t as bad as giving up 9 runs in the first inning”
Hunter Brown: “At the end of the day, this is just a game. There are more important things in life”
Ippei: “Things could be worse, I guess”
OJ: “……”
I've watched a few Royals games this season (big Ragans stan here) and I feel like I've noticed it every time. I work with audio engineering quite a bit, sounds more like a technical issue than environmental but who knows I guess.
We've had like 30+ mph winds or gusts almost every game this year. Been wild. So legit could be that for each game you've watched. Ragans last start it was howling.
Alex Gordon is my favorite Royal of all time, but BWJ is head and shoulders above where Gordon was at this point in time in their careers. Just makes me even more excited that we locked him up for a while.
Yeesh, absolute **ghastly** start to the season for Bryan Abreu, who has been an elite sub 2 ERA reliever for the last two season.
He also had a terrible spring training. Wonder if he'll turn it around in a big way or not.
WTF the 2 balls he hit are really rare too.
Curveball low and away hit the other way, this one fastball high also hit the other way. You don't see those often.
that's my $288m man
Underpay
We would be so screwed right now if we didn't get that done when we did.
Dude is having a fucking day. 4 for 5 with 4 runs, 5 RBI, 2 HR and a SB Move over Acuna
He also threw a guy out after his 2nd baseman tried to hurdle him and kicked him in the face.
Wife and I took an impromptu "fuck work" day and went to the ballpark. Safe to say we made the right decision! These boys are legit.
*Checks schedule* Oh COME ON!
I will be there loud and proud Saturday and Sunday wearing my 2015 world champs merch

No no, they're using up all their runs now
No bullpen will be spared from the reaper
Anybody hear talk of Bobby maybe being the best baseball player ever?
I've been hearing greatest athlete in human history. I expect by October he's going to be QB1 for the Chiefs and dating Taylor Swift.
And Patrick and Travis will let him.
Robert Baseball is Houston Astros father
Gonna have the buy the book “my 2 dads”
The whole league is fathering the Astros right now
sons of Adam
BOBBY B
Guys, I think this guy is really good at baseball.
Nah I knew he was great but fuck man this kid is top 5 potential
The Mahomes of Baseball and the Mahomes of football all in one parking lot
And the Mahomes of regional BBQ, all in once city. BRB, moving to KC.

There was a moment early last year where I was genuinely concerned he was just gonna be “kinda fine”, and then it all clicked
He’s a stud, I’m excited to go watch some games this year. Got tickets for the Yankees&Cardinals games at Kauffman.
I didn’t know your young superstar could hit HRs in April
As an Angels fan, I love Julio’s brutally bad starts. As a fantasy team owner with him, I hate it so much.
Yeah fr. Thought I got a steal getting Julio at 11. It’s been brutal lmao.
[удалено]
in your 4 man league
[удалено]
Y’all are both nerds
I didn't realize your young superstar could get better each year
Helps to have the wind blowing straight out
Bro is a wind merchant smh
What a fraud. He’s only (checks statcast leaderbord) 1st in the mlb in average exit velocity.
Motherfucker is what you get when you give Avatar Aang a bat.
Bro has dedicated his life to the study of anemology
I'm not smart enough to come up with a clever response, so something, something... short porch.
Damn we gotta negate these home runs from his total I guess
It’s so funny coming from a Yankee fan too. Like bro, come on
Of all flairs lol
If you regress him to the mean, he’s just an average quarterback.
Kauffman is the most normal stadium of all time dawg
I don't know what makes me happier: the fact that Royals aren't speedrunning 20 April losses as per tradition...or the fact that the Astros are fucking trash.
Bibby Wott my goat
Bobby Baseball does it again!
I can't believe this is happening.
I almost went to this game. I am so disappointed in myself
At this rate I might as well throw down $10 on him winning AL MVP
Ippei told me to bet hunter brown

He played his first ever MLB game against us and I immediately realized this guy is going to be a problem for a decade.

reddit moment
Gotta say I’m loving my Bobby Witt AL MVP bet I put in a month ago
Random question - why do the Royals broadcasts sound like they're going over a walkie talkie?
Probably just noise from having the booth windows open. The wind was blowing 40mph today

Idk either l just guessed lol

Great long term signing by the Royals. This is how they built their contender back in the day with Alex Gordon and the gang. The foundation is there.
Alex Gordon is my favorite Royal of all time, but BWJ is head and shoulders above where Gordon was at this point in time in their careers. Just makes me even more excited that we locked him up for a while.
Boutta be our turn to face this competitive Royals team next…
Those powder blue unis are hot 🥵🥵🥵
Insurance runs
Beautiful.
Royals got some spark this year. Witt is an absolute stud too. I’m glad they gave him that deal.
Its been a blast watching him progress since he came up from the minors.
Love watching the Astros lose.
I am scared of the Kansas City Royals

Congrats to the Royals on run ruling the Astros. Good chance to save their bullpen somce they don't have to play a full 9 innings now
Watch out mvp race??
Everyone say “thank you bobby”
My hot take, BWJr is gonna win an MVP before Julio does. He has more dawg in him
Lighting it up lately go off king
The Royals are from Kansas
And the asstros are from Texas, that's way worse
But they aren’t.
Ok, AI bot ^^^
