Show Notes
Is the time right to consider long-term contracts to promising young Royals players like Bobby Witt Jr.? We put the question to beat writer Lynn Worthy and columnist Sam McDowell on SportsBeat KC?
Long-terms deals can provide security and risk, and the Royals have been here before, although not with a rookie. From their 2014-15 pennant years, they signed Alex Gordon to an extension from that team but not others.
We also discuss who the Royals should consider bringing up when rosters expand later this week, and how next year’s schedule, which includes fewer games against AL Central opponents and more against National League teams, impacts the Royals.
