The Royals' miserable 10-game roadtrip is over, though there's no rest for the weary: Thursday's 15-1 loss extended the team's current losing streak to nine games. So that's probably it for 2021, right? Team insider Josh Vernier called into 610's The Rush on Wednesday afternoon to break it down:
"Yeah there doesn't appear to be any hope for 2021 in sight," Vernier said. "We could sit around and wish for the things we've been wishing for since, what? Game 3? Game 7? When we realized Hunter Dozier, Brad Keller, Jorge Soler, not necessarily giving us the kind of performances we're expecting. So either those three names, that we've already talked about way too much this season, either they turn it around, or once this All-Star break reaches us, it's on to 2022..."
