My hot take, for what it's worth: Even though the big stage has overwhelmed Bobby & Vinnie at the plate so far (their swings have gotten progressively worse!), the Royals could have won game one if the bullpen didn't get the yips and walk everybody. I think a return to the K will settle Bobby & Vinnie, and the Royals are in excellent shape to win this series.

I hate to say they’re “overwhelmed.” Maybe pressing, which would be understandable given the circumstances. As we know, Bobby hits much better at home. I wouldn’t be surprised if he found his groove at The K.

For Vinnie to have gotten any hits since coming back is pretty remarkable. Guessing getting used to a new thumb and new bat are more of the issue than the big stage. Bobby has gotten a little unlucky, but doesn't seem to be on full superstar- i'm bettting KC gets him in the right mindset
