Ep 615The Freddy Peralta Trade and Why the Royals Can’t Afford Fear

In this episode of the Royals Rundown Podcast, Jeremy “Hokius” Greco breaks down one of the most intriguing moves of the MLB offseason: the New York Mets’ trade for Freddy Peralta.

Ep 611When Baseball Becomes an Asset: Royals Rundown on Money and Control

What happens when private equity meets baseball—and who actually pays the price? In this episode of the Royals Rundown Podcast, hosts Jacob Milham and Jeremy Greco are joined by Jen Ramos Eisen for an in-depth conversation about the growing influence of private equity in minor league baseball and what it means for players, fans, and communities. Together, they unpack how ownership models are changing the economics of the sport, from player development and quality of play to ticket pricing and long-term sustainability. The discussion takes a hard look at labor negotiations, including why tensions are rising between players and ownership, what a future salary floor could mean for competitive balance, and why every MLB team has the financial ability—but not always the willingness—to invest more in their product. Jen also challenges the long-standing “small market” narrative, explaining why geography often masks deeper financial realities. The episode also explores the role of public funding in sports, questioning whether stadium deals and taxpayer investments truly benefit local communities or primarily serve ownership interests. With minor league teams increasingly treated as assets rather than community institutions, the conversation highlights the broader societal implications of modern baseball ownership.

Ep 608Royals by the Numbers: What ZiPS Really Thinks of Kansas City (with Dan Szymborski)

What do the numbers actually say about the Kansas City Royals? In this episode of the Royals Rundown Podcast, Jacob Milham and Jeremy Greco welcome Dan Szymborski, creator of ZiPS, for a deep dive into the Royals’ latest projections and what they reveal about the team’s short- and long-term outlook. The conversation begins with how ZiPS works, why projections are inherently volatile, and how historical context shapes modern baseball analytics. From there, the group digs into Kansas City’s roster—starting with recent acquisitions and a candid evaluation of the Royals’ outfield, a position group that has quietly limited the team in recent seasons. They examine projected performances for players like Jonathan India, Isaac Collins, and Adam Frazier, discuss why catcher development often lags offensively, and analyze the Royals’ pitching depth and rotation stability. Dan also offers insight into reliever volatility, bounce-back candidates like Tanner Scott, and how strategic trades could meaningfully shift Kansas City’s projected outcomes. This episode is a must-listen for fans who want to understand where the Royals stand and where the data says they could be headed. Find the projections here: https://blogs.fangraphs.com/2026-zips-projections-kansas-city-royals/ In Dan's words, "You can, however, still get mad at me on Twitter or on Bluesky.

Ep 607Why the Royals’ Latest Moves Actually Make Sense (with TJStats)

The Royals are making moves—and this episode breaks down what they really mean. Jacob Milham and Jeremy Greco are joined by Thomas Nestico (TJ Stats) to analyze one of the most surprising trades of the offseason, as the Kansas City Royals strike a deal with the Milwaukee Brewers that could quietly pay dividends. The trio discusses why Isaac Collins fits the Royals’ outfield plans, how Maikel Garcia’s contract extension signals long-term stability, and why Carter Jensen is quickly becoming one of the organization’s most intriguing prospects. They also take an honest look at Jack Caglianone’s uneven rookie season, what needs to change for him to take the next step, and how the Royals’ evolving hitting philosophy, particularly their focus on chase rate, could shape future roster decisions. Along the way, the conversation dives into bullpen volatility, pitching depth in the farm system, and why player development remains the backbone of Kansas City’s path forward. It’s a data-driven, big-picture discussion about where the Royals are headed—and why there’s real reason for optimism.

Ep 605Royals Rolling the Dice in Rule 5 Draft, MLB Draft Lottery?

In this episode of Royals Rundown, hosts Jacob Milham and Jeremy "Hokius" Greco take a deep dive into a crucial stretch of the Kansas City Royals’ offseason. With the MLB Winter Meetings heating up, the pair explores what’s real and what’s just rumor, breaking down how previous winter meetings laid the groundwork for future blockbuster trades — and what fans can realistically expect this time around. They also discuss the Royals’ historically bad luck in the MLB Draft Lottery and how this year’s lottery could affect their rebuild strategy. Is this the year the Royals land a top pick, or will the ping pong balls bounce the wrong way again? Then it’s on to the Rule 5 Draft — a part of the offseason that flies under the radar for many fans but could yield hidden gems. Jacob and Jeremy explain how the draft works, what types of players the Royals should be targeting (low-leverage relievers, anyone?), and why $25K is a small price for a potential impact piece. Plus, they debate the risk and reward of rolling the dice on minor league arms and highlight how strategic roster planning is essential to making it all work. As always, the hosts mix deep baseball analysis with fan-driven insight and humor to keep Royals fans informed and entertained.
