I'm thrilled to announce that I'm joining the @Royals as a Minor League Pitching Coach. I'll be wrapping up my time @TreadHQ on the 18th, after Pro Weekend this weekend. I can't thank everybody at Tread enough for ~18 of the most transformative months of my life. Go Royals!

Our 2026 #RaisingRoyals👑 staff and coordinators.

It doesn’t seem to be self explanatory to people why the Charlie Francis motor recruitment chart of different exercises is laid out like it is, due to a fundamental misunderstanding in what coordination is.

Had such a blast with these guys at Rylan’s wedding. It’s incredible to think how far everyone has gone in each of their respective journey’s. While we all have a common love of data and helping pitchers, I know we’ve all become better people because of @RylanDomingues.

The power of the Fireflies pen on full display last night in Myrtle Beach. Yimi Presinal, Kamden Edge and Bryson Dudley: 6.1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 14 strikeouts. Yes…14 strikeouts. #RaisingRoyals👑

Third stop on the Shane Panzini 2025 tour will be Omaha and the International League. Congrats, Shane! #RaisingRoyals👑

Ben Kudrna is done, and his final line is 🔥‼️ 6⃣IP, 1⃣H,0⃣R, 1⃣1⃣K,0⃣BB on 8⃣5⃣ pitches! Kudrna struck out every hitter in the Travs lineup at least once! @MLB | @MLBPipeline | @Royals | @KCRoyalsPD

Nasty Noah.

Major League pitchers to begin their careers with back-to-back starts of 6.1+ innings pitched and 2-or-fewer hits, @MLB history per @Stathead: NOAH CAMERON (2025) That's the list. #FountainsUp | @KCRoyalsPD | @Noahcameron05

Noah was nails.

Noah got the call! 📞 #RaisingRoyals👑

SPINNING A NO-HITTER COMES NATURAL TO NORTHWEST ARKANSAS! @Royals prospects Ryan Ramsey, Chazz Martinez, Ryan Brady + Brandon Johnson combine for the @nwanaturals' first such milestone since 2013 🎉

HISTORY IN SAN ANTONIO! Ryan Ramsey, Chazz Martinez, Ryan Brady, and Brandon Johnson combine to throw the fourth no-hitter in franchise history!

@jjasonfosterr All the best mate!

As my time with Tread comes to a close, I’d like to thank everyone that’s been a part of these last 4 years. All the athletes, coaches, co-workers that I’ve got to work with and alongside have made my time here an incredible experience, one that I’m so glad I took the chance on and committed to as a young 25 year old eager to start his first paid full-time job. I want to express the sheer gratitude I have for the athletes that have trusted me with their careers the last 4 years. Putting your faith in someone you’ve never met, trusting them to get the best out of you, with the hope of reaching your full potential is something I’ll never under-appreciate. I’m proud and immensely appreciative of all the athletes I got to work with and the dedication they put in over the years. Building relationships and watching them grow as athletes and people is the reason I fell in love with this job, and the reason I’ll continue to work in this field as long as I can. No amount of PRs or on the field accolades will outlast the relationships built and I’m forever thankful for that. As they say, when one door closes another one opens and I couldn’t be more excited to see what God has planned for me and my family in this next chapter. Thank you all for an amazing ride!

Ben Kudrna strikes out his 🔟th of the game, tying a career-high!
