Jack JohnsonHOST

Jack JohnsonHOST
And if you feel like Hunter Brown can be your frontline piece for two, three, four seasons... maybe you do have to move one of those guys or move a Blake Mitchell.
Jack JohnsonHOST
That would be somebody I would try to leverage in a deal like that, but it wouldn't be just Hunter Brown for Blake Mitchell.
Jack JohnsonHOST
It'd still be a few more prospects.
Jack JohnsonHOST
So yes, they have the prospects to pull that deal off.

Jack JohnsonHOST
I believe that would add a lot of juice for the Royals going into the 2027 campaign.
Jack JohnsonHOST
Eli's question, I believe the Royals have a DH problem short-term and long-term.
Jack JohnsonHOST
Cags, Vinny, Sal, Blake Mitchell, and Ramon Ramirez, how would you solve this problem? By the way, love Mailbag Friday.
Soren PetroHOST
And right now, they're in high A.
Soren PetroHOST
And guys like Blake Mitchell, and he wasn't even a Bridges guy.
Soren PetroHOST
I think that was the draft pick before Bridges.
Soren PetroHOST
He was the
David LeskyGUEST
year before.
Soren PetroHOST
But Blake Mitchell cannot spend a third year.
Soren PetroHOST
Really, a fourth year.
Soren PetroHOST
Well, he had a cup of coffee.
Jim CallisHOST
David Shields has been on the top 100.
Jim CallisHOST
So has Blake Mitchell, the catcher, who's kind of Mr.
Jim CallisHOST
Three True Outcomes.
Jim CallisHOST
There's a lot of walks, a lot of strikeouts, a lot of power with him.
Doug KretzingerHOST
Despite a dearth of offense once again, QC found enough for a third victory with an improbable eighth-inning rally.
Doug KretzingerHOST
As Bell Gonzalez got that started with a two-out single and moved all the way to third on a wild pick-off throw, Blake Mitchell, who drove in Gonzalez twice in the game, then came through with an opposite-field RBI single to left for his 75th RBI of the season.
Doug KretzingerHOST
Manager Jesus Zuezuez's River Bandits took a 2-0 lead in the first when Nolan Saylor's single, who stole two stolen bases, and Gonzalez walked to lead off the game.
Doug KretzingerHOST
Saylor scored when catcher Sammy Hernandez's throw to third sailed into left field.
Soren PetroHOST
How good is he now? How good can he be? What does this mean for the future of the Kansas City Royals? We'll talk about that.
Soren PetroHOST
What should the plan be with Blake Mitchell and Ramon Ramirez, two talented catchers down in A ball? How are they going to figure in? Jack Caglione injured his elbow throwing from the outfield.
Soren PetroHOST
Guess who wasn't happy about that? Jack Caglin and Noah Cameron did combine for player and pitcher of the month.
Soren PetroHOST
First time that's happened since 85.

CurtisNARRATOR
slash Kaufman for up to 50% off.
Soren PetroHOST
All right, let's talk a little bit about the catchers on the way.
Soren PetroHOST
Blake Mitchell, Ramon Ramirez, both of them still in high A. Blake Mitchell bats left-handed.
Soren PetroHOST
You're not going to have two left-handed hitting catchers.
Jacob MilhamHOST
One of the best pitching seasons ever by a teenager Preston Farr friend of the podcast was the first to point out some of the great company that Shields is in including Madison Bumgarner like those are the names that are coming up you have to go back decades to to see a dominant stretch at that level by a teenager, so congratulations to him.
Jacob MilhamHOST
Of course, you know, Blake Mitchell, Ramon Ramirez have been, like, there's a lot of talent there in high A, and I haven't even told Jeremy this, but I'll go ahead and tell everyone.
Jacob MilhamHOST
Hear this.
Jacob MilhamHOST
We are slated to have one of the standouts from the Quad Cities River Bandits here on the podcast once their series or season ends.
Kyle KerchevalCORRESPONDENT
Langevin's scoreless effort was one of just many for the Bandits' bullpen as of late, which pitched to a 156 ERA over its last seven games.
Kyle KerchevalCORRESPONDENT
Royals No. 5 prospect Blake Mitchell also had a hand in Friday's win, launching a game-tying solo shot for his 23rd of the year.
Kyle KerchevalCORRESPONDENT
While his single-season total ties for fourth best in the league this summer, Mitchell's up to 25 in a River Bandits uniform, moving him into the top 10 on Quad City's all-time home run list.
Kyle KerchevalCORRESPONDENT
Following Sunday's regular season finale, the River Bandits will host the South Bend Cubs for Game 1 of the West Division Championship Series on Tuesday, September 8th at Modern Woodman Park.
Chance LiebauHOST
I know I brought it up to Jack, but this was a critical year for him.
Chance LiebauHOST
because Blake Mitchell is a guy that is very highly thought of in the organization, and I think Profiles is a really talented backstop for some other organization.
Chance LiebauHOST
But coming into the season, it was a prove-it season for Carter Jensen, or it was, we're going to give Blake Mitchell a shot in 2027, or your spot in 2027 is not solidified.
Chance LiebauHOST
It's another position and one of the toughest positions to fill that the Royals don't have to worry about filling in 2027.
Chance LiebauHOST
Giving them that sigh and breath, that relief sense that they don't have to go out and find their backstop for the next 10 years.
Chance LiebauHOST
They don't have to trust, hopefully, in Blake Mitchell to do that.
Chance LiebauHOST
It's a big step in the right direction, and it's one reason why I think that he is a player that I would absolutely look to extend.
Chance LiebauHOST
this offseason because I think it's super hard to find catchers in this day and age that can hit it as well as he can.
Dusty LikensHOST
He hotter than donut grease at Lamar's on a Sunday morning at 6 a.m. And Bobby Wood Jr. is a certified superstar.
Dusty LikensHOST
So now you've got your pieces and you've got some minor leaguers, which you have in Churio and Blake Mitchell and guys like that, that you could package maybe with a proven, you know, cause that's what we always see in, in trades in baseball.
Dusty LikensHOST
I want your top prospect and I want a proven MLB player.
Dusty LikensHOST
Okay.
Joe DoyleGUEST
You've got guys like Zion Rose who is just at high A ball.
Joe DoyleGUEST
You've got guys like Blake Mitchell who, when he was drafted, it was going to be a long-term project.
Joe DoyleGUEST
This was going to take a while in the same way that Carter Jensen was going to take a while, but that's the sort of output that you can get.
Joe DoyleGUEST
Blake Mitchell could be Carter Jensen with even better defensive tools.
Joe DoyleGUEST
You have to wait for that sort of player to blossom and develop and turn into what they're going to become.
Joe DoyleGUEST
When you talk about all the talent, you've got Ramon Ramirez in high A, you've got Taylor Rabe who's a long ways away, you've got Sean Gamble who These guys are all seasoning because they're all taking their time.
