#Royals fans, let’s vote to make Brooks Bryan an AFL Fall Star!
We can’t allow a Yankees or Angels prospect defeat us!
You can vote up to five times and voting ends on Friday.

MLB & Rawlings have announced Gold Glove finalists since 2011. 16 seasons x 2 leagues.
In just 3 instances has an organization had finalists at ALL 4 infield positions:
⚾️2013 Rays (Loney, Zobrist, Y. Escobar, Longoria)
⚾️2018 A's (Olson, Lowrie, Semien, Chapman)
⚾️2026 Royals
An elite first line of defense. 🔥
Nick, Bobby, Michael, and Vinnie have been named 2026 @RawlingsSports Gold Glove finalists!
ALT A graphic with cutout images of Nick Loftin, Bobby Witt Jr., Michael Massey and Vinnie Pasquantino against a gold background. Text on the graphic reads, "Rawlings Gold Glove Awards Finalists: Nick Loftin, Third Base. Bobby Witt Jr., Shortstop. Michael Massey, Second Base. Vinnie Pasquantio, First Base"
After some (exhaustive) research, I believe Cags and Carter are first teammates 23 or younger to go back-to-back since 1991!
That July and August, the White Sox Frank Thomas and Robin Ventura (each 23) went back to back as A.L. Players of the Month.
Depending on who you ask, approx. 23,000 people have had the honor of being a Major League baseball player.
Just 108 (now counting Salvy!) have hit 20+ home runs in 10 or more seasons.
That's 0.47%.
Let's "plus-one" this #KappelStat...
Highest OPS in Sept./Oct. in American League player's first two MLB seasons (min. 125 PA):
Ted Williams - 1.180 (1939-40, BOS)
Aaron Judge - 1.144 (2016-17, NYY)
@carterjensenn - 1.099 (2025-26, KC)

I caught the golden baseball for Smiles for Miles (smiles4miles.org) in recognition of National Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.
I challenge @goldbergkc, @TheRealHoz35, and @JakeEisenberg_ to catch the golden baseball!
Way to go, Rudy!
Determination and heart are undefeated.

Go lead the nation in tackles! #RockChalk
2026 is the first season in #Royals club history that two players age-23 or younger have connected for 22+ home runs.

So you ask, prior to Jac and Noah, when was the last time two homegrown players from the same org took home Player of the Month awards in the same month?
You have to go all the way back to May 2017 for the answer! 🤯

Last #Royals player with a 5-hit, 6-RBI game was sitting in the @kcroyalstv booth tonight.
Sorry Ryan, but it was @TheRealHoz35 who did so on July 26, 2017 at Detroit.
