In a letter to fans and media, Royals owner John Sherman laid out his vision for a new downtown ballpark and entertainment district, complete with a price tag–$2 billion–and renderings.
There is plenty to determine, starting with more specifics on funding and a timetable. On today’s SportsBeat KC podcast, Star columnist Vahe Gregorian and beat writer Lynn Worthy explore those questions and more.
What seems more clear now than at any other time, the Royals are determined to move downtown.
After a break, we discuss the team’s resigning of first baseman Ryan O’Hearn, and did the Royals get the choices right for player and pitcher of the year, Bobby Witt Jr., and Brady Singer?
