Royals Review Radio: The Moose Returns

It was a slow off-season, but we got through it. And to make up for it, the Royals made a flurry of moves this month. We’ll discuss the return of Mike Moustakas, what this means for the Royals rebuild, and we’ll poke a bit of fun at the fan vote for the Top 50 Royals in franchise history.

On the podcast this week, we miss usual host Shaun Newkirk, but try to soldier on with Max Rieper (@maxrieper), Matthew Lamar (@LaMar_Matt), Hokius (@hokius), and Patrick Brennan (@paintingcorner).

Running time: 1 hour 6 minutes
