Episode Details

Royals general manager J.J. Picollo called the team’s performance this year “disappointing,” and a fan base would agree. He said that and much more on SportsBeat KC, The Star’s daily sports podcast.

Picollo joined beat writer Lynn Worthy and columnist Vahe Gregorian on the show that started as a SportsBeat Live broadcast. The topics included the development of starting pitching, the future role of Brad Keller, the young lineup and what carries into next season.

Also, miserable as the season is, there are some bright spots, like the performance of starting pitcher Brady Singer and the play of rookies like Bobby Witt Jr., M.J. Melendez and Vinnie Pasquantino.
