2021 was a bit of a roller coaster for Brady Singer. And that’s saying something, considering that it was a roller coaster for pretty much every single young arm in the Royals system. At the Major League level, Daniel Lynch tipped his pitches, Kris Bubic seemingly only made great and horrendous starts, and Jackson Kowar forgot how to throw strikes. In the minors, Asa Lacy struck a whole lot of hitters out but didn’t get very many of them out.
But for Singer, he faced another challenge that none of those guys faced as severely: bad luck.
