  1. Welcome to the all-new Royals Keep!
  2. If you have questions about literally anything, please PM me anytime or @Brock Beauchamp me to notify me to check in on a conversation. And if you have something to say here in the forums, please start a thread and/or comment on an existing thread!
  3. Royals Keep can be overwhelming to the uninitiated. Where many sites have blogs, or forums, and sometimes both, Royals Keep’s scope extends far beyond that and offers many fan-specific features you won’t find elsewhere. This guide will walk you through the site and its sections. Royals Keep News: This is the front page of the site, and the place you will find news and analysis from our stable of dedicated Royals writers. You can read and then comment on any article in this section. Notes & Rumors: This section features shorter pieces, including low-impact news such as a minor-league promotion or a brief stint on the injured list, as well as all free agent and trade rumors. This section is hopping in July and December. Royals Keep Forums: These operate much like traditional internet forums (for those of us born in the 1900s). It’s all user-generated content where people are free to talk baseball all day, every day. Unlike many places on the internet, basic human decency is expected and will be enforced. This is a place to talk baseball without the drama and nastiness found elsewhere. User Blogs: These are user-created blogs that look and read much like our front page news, though any Royals Keep user can create their own blog and be read by thousands of like-minded fans! If you’ve ever wanted to try your hand at baseball writing, this is the place to do it. You will receive built-in readership from day one, allowing you to hone your craft. Royals Keep Videos: The counterpart to our front-page articles, this is where you will find our multimedia content, both news and analysis. Those are the five largest sections of the site. But we’re only getting started… Guides & Resources: Here, you will find a collection of useful resources, including stadium guides, an introduction to visiting spring training, a history of team ownership, a gift-giving guide, and more. Active Roster & 40-Man Roster: We maintain roster pages for both the 26-man (active) roster and the 40-man roster, updated nightly. Bullpen Usage Chart: Stay on top of bullpen usage with this handy chart that shows reliever usage over the past five days. The Activity Feed: This is a highly customizable page that many users bookmark as their primary launching point into Royals Keep’s content. You can select which content to show and which to ignore, and then save your feed preferences. Top Prospect Rankings: We have a dedicated page featuring the top 20 Royals prospects, which includes brief scouting reports, updated statistics, and recent articles and videos to keep you informed about your favorite prospects. Rank Your Favorite Prospects: Unlike most other publications, Royals Keep involves the community in ranking prospects. We hold open voting a half-dozen times a year, keep an eye open for the next round! Fan Polls: One of the newest interactive features of Royals Keep, we update polls regularly, and you’re allowed to vote once a day. Let us know what you think of the Royals organization, its players, and personnel today! Offseason/Trade Deadline Blueprint: Have you always dreamed of becoming an MLB general manager? If so, check out our blueprint page, which is active during July and throughout the winter. Build the Royals roster to your specifications, then share it with other Royals Keep users for discussion. Become A Royals Keep Caretaker: Want to support the site at a higher level? Become a Caretaker today! Not only can you receive ad-free browsing of the entire website, but you also get first (and often free) access to our events and access to exclusive content. That’s most of what Royals Keep has to offer! If you have any questions or suggestions, you’re welcome to message our community manager, @Brock Beauchamp.

  5. It's hard to predict how this offseason will unfold, as there is an increasing chance of (yet another) MLB lockout following the 2026 season. Will teams spend big this offseason, hoping to create surety in the face of an unknown collective bargaining agreement? Or will they be hesitant in hopes of a favorable outcome for ownership groups? It will be an interesting offseason for free agents ranging from Kyle Tucker to Willi Castro. No matter how it shakes out, teams will need to compete in the 2026 season, and they'll need to sign free agents this winter. DiamondCentric has compiled a complete list of free agents, sortable and searchable by pretty much any metric you need. Looking for a first baseman? A catcher? We have you covered. We offer two pages for your reference: one for position players, the other for pitchers.
