Back to the original point, the hitters in the Royals farm system aren’t performing especially well. As an organization, they’re below average in many key categories such as whiff rate, chase rate, and overall contact. The change in hitting development leadership before this season only seems to have compounded the issues plaguing the system’s development. The Royals have essentially doubled down on Alec Zumwalt. This, despite Zumwalt treading hot water to varying degrees over the last calendar year. If the Royals truly needed to change course in the farm system, promoting those who will bring “continuity from the Major Leagues to the Minor Leagues” isn’t the way to do it.
What’s happening in the Major Leagues isn’t working. Translating that to the Minor Leagues is also bound not to work.
