Sam McDowell

He's on pace for 59 walks.

Which would mean that Carter Jensen's on pace for 59 walks.

He's got more than that, right?

He's got 10.

Isaac Collins has got 10.

Carter Jensen's got 10.

In 28 games.

They haven't played 28, but that's how many the Royals have played, assuming that they're deployed the same way they're deployed.

But there is then Lane Thomas with 11, Michael Garcia with 12, 14 for Bobby Witt, and 15 for Vinny Pascantino.

This will be, by far, the most walks that a Royals team has had in quite some time.

My hope is that, yes, they've had problems and they've taken too many pitches along the way here, but that they'll find the happy medium.

But you would agree it's a process if you're going to fundamentally change how you do things.

Yeah.

Is Alex Zumwalt's seat still warm?

If they weren't talking about it, they were making a mistake, though.

I will say that.

Like, it needed to be discussed.

Not like, here's our plan, but it needed to be like, all right.

Now they've scored, what is it, uh...

They're averaging over seven now in their last six games.
