Nicky Lopez begins 2019 as the Royals’ 5th best prospect according to Baseball America. Originally selected by Kansas City out of Creighton in the 5th round of the 2016 draft, the current Omaha shortstop spent last season doing nothing but hit, leading Royals farmhands with 155 hits en route to combined marks of .382/.417/.799. He recently joined Dave O to talk about his viral twitter video with a German Shepherd, who he’ll go for in a Chiefs/Bears Super Bowl, gaining 14 pounds over the winter and lots more!
