On today's episode, Javier is joined by good buddy Rylan Stiles (host of Locked On Royals) to discuss former Kansas City Royal and current San Diego Padre Eric Hosmer! Aside from Javi trying his hardest not to say his name, they discuss his strong start, tenure with the Royals, and whether or not he can keep it up. Then, the two discuss how difficult of a rebuild the Royals have had, Bobby Witt Jr.'s potential, the merits of small-market teams trading their players, the Royals world series run, and much more! This is a good one. Follow Javier on Twitter @Javiipeno Follow Locked On Padres @LO_Padres Subscribe to the new Locked On Padres YouTube Channel! Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
