In this episode of the Royals Rundown Podcast, hosts Jacob Milham and Jeremy "Hokius" Greco are joined by Max Rieper and Matthew LaMar to break down the Kansas City Royals’ end-of-season press conference and what it really told us. From the return of Alex Zumwalt to the rise of Vance Wilson’s managerial stock, the crew unpacks what’s real, what’s PR spin, and what Royals fans should expect this offseason.
They also dive into the team’s evolving hitting philosophy, reflect on the lack of bold moves ahead, and sprinkle in some good old-fashioned Royals weirdness—like Mike Sweeney handing a jersey to the Pope. It’s the perfect mix of baseball insight, Royals fandom, and pop culture banter to send the season off in style.
