And now hes an absolute goat for the Royals. Unit of a player

[@NorthernAzCards]

Met him In 2020 here in Arizona at spring training, nice kid, hope he stays humble

[@Nick-lt2yq]

I went to elementary middle and high school with him so happy to see he’s doing well

[@matrixwalker]

He’s got a great mentor in his dad. His dad may not have been anywhere near being amongst the greatest pitchers of all time, but few played the game as hard and respected the game as much as his dad did, which is why I was a huge Bobby Witt fan back in the mid 90s. Hopefully Jr has learned all about the grit and toughness his dad had and can combine it with his talent to become a future HOFer.

Welcome to KC! Thank you Texas for Mahomes and Witt!

Good luck with your baseball career. I hope you make it to the majors as quickly as your father did with the Rangers!

[@swagdaddyify]

Holy crap...I didn't even make the connection until I saw this comment and then read his name again....

[@sethlewis07]

Happened fast! Hes going to be a stud! Go Royals!

[@Robertb98765]

He is raking in triple a. I am so hyped. I can't wait for him to be called up.

[@Schyler__Parker]

The time is now brother!

[@bobbrangan1050]

He seems like a good kid too, kudos to the parents

[@Dlnqntt]

This kid reached the HOF in my OOTP play through.

[@smac1130]

He hit his 1st homerun tonight. I'm glad to say I was witness to both his first mlb hit and homerun. He's going to be something special.

[@ThatGuyInKansas]

This young man has renewed my faith in the game of baseball (along with a couple of other guys). He plays the game with a joy and an abandonment that is rare in game at the MLB level.

[@McHeebler]

MVP MVP!!!!!!!!!!!💪💪💪💪 KC loves Bobby!

[@justaguy6560]

All the blonds see there meal ticket there lol

[@brandonbellino8896]

You mean his sisters?

[@vickymizell2443]

Just AGuy Your comment sounds like something just a guy would say!! Those blondes are relatives!!

[@mikemarek6243]

@@vickymizell2443 that dont mean they cant use him. Look at most athletes or in life in general. Family is the first ones to use someone. And its worse because when they do its cause "family takes care of family"

[@lightingbolt8148]

Shut up dude

[@vandrosia]

@@mikemarek6243 Fuck family! I let me son starve to death because he's a loser. LoL

[@jonathanarnder1277]

I love the color blue was the first thing he said after he's so excited ?? Our feature leaders america

[@Jdeneik]

The Kansas City Fans have two goats from Texas! Mahomes and Witt! Thank you Texas!!!!!!

[@spencerwinston4334]

The 21st century version of 'laughing lion" George Brett. Congrats Bobby, next level talent combined with the road scholar baseball knowledge of his dad, what a combination. Win or lose Bobby with the Royals, keep playing for love of the game and with class and dignity, and KC will be the ideal place for you as the fans appreciate dignity and class above all. See you out at the K Bobby, and the name is "junior!!!!." Royals mgmt. triple the pay please for this baseball phenom and first class individual.

[@Inbeatswetrust]

Cant wait to see him out on the field in the big league

[@ryanprice7745]

1:12 god, how amazing it would be to have that be your name with your family sitting around you

Bill Witt Sr. was a great high school ball player back in Canton, Mass.

[@robertcortez1109]

It must be excited to get drafted the whole family watching I would be excited too

[@agwbcfjc2]

When will Witt be eligible to play for the Royals--this year or next? Thanks.

[@SD-pi9co]

Baseball. Saving the world one ball at a time.

[@temetnosce17]

Ready to earn those Gold Gloves like Alcides did, Witt?! Welcome to the Blue Crew son!

[@vandrosia]

This kid will become the next Bubba Starling! So much upside! Can't wait for Bubba and Bobby to play together. Go Royals!

[@metsfan7376]

So you think Bobby will be a bust? Because Bubba is definitely a bust

[@angeliotorres8044]

I got a baseball signed by him

We’re gonna be rich! Our investment paid off! Why don’t people get excited like this for any job your child gets? $$$?

[@lightingbolt8148]

Smh his family isn’t exactly poor dude

[@zeusdeuce7438]

Most of the highlight videos I’ve seen on this kid are under whelming but hey at least he likes the color blue.

[@zeusdeuce7438]

Oh man I apologize I wasn’t able to get out and scout him this year 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@JobberJim]

Lol didn't age well.

[@zeusdeuce7438]

What? He doesn’t like blue anymore?

[@JobberJim]

@@zeusdeuce7438 🤡

[@zeusdeuce7438]

This has to be the weakest troll I’ve ever seen 😂 i never once said anything about what i thought about him as a player but instead commented on the lack of solid highlights yet here comes captain idiot trying his best to be clever yet failing miserably 😆

[@JaysonWill_]

This kid signed a baseball for everyone but a 10 year old kid
