## Resource

Two 19-year-old pitching prospects, Kendry Chourio and David Shields, are rewriting the script for Kansas City Royals’ minor league depth—Shields, in particular, is dominating High-A with elite strikeout numbers, a league-leading WHIP, and a refined delivery that’s unlocked his changeup and slider. His maturity and command make him a standout, and the Royals are buzzing about his potential as he climbs the ladder. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
