Plus a look ahead to this weekend’s San Diego Padres series
The Kansas City Royals just showed signs of life—and hosts Jacob Milham and Jeremy “Hokius” Greco are here to break it all down on the Royals Rundown Podcast! The duo recaps a strong offensive showing in the series against the Texas Rangers, with special focus on Jack Caglianone’s monster performance and what it could mean for the Royals’ lineup going forward.
They also unpack the latest on Cole Ragans’ injury, evaluate the pitching staff’s depth, and look ahead to a pivotal road stretch that includes a clash with the San Diego Padres. Are trade talks starting to heat up? Who could the Royals realistically move—or bring in?
From baseball takes to cultural hot buttons, this episode has everything Royals fans need to stay informed—and maybe even a little fired up.
