Welcome to U.L.’s Toothpick

I’m glad you’re here. I’ve been writing about Kansas City Royals history for more than a decade now, first at Pine Tar Press, then Baseball Prospectus Kansas City, and then on my own under the U.L.’s Toothpick name. I don’t plan on ever charging for this, so go ahead and subscribe to get full access to the newsletter and website. That way you never miss an update.

A bit about me

I was raised in Topeka, listening to Denny and Fred. While I will always wish I could have seen the late 1970s Royals, I am fortunate I can remember the 1985 World Series…it made the ensuing three decades a bit easier to take. I now live in Arkansas, but I miss Kansas City almost every day. You can find me on Twitter (er, X) at Darin_Watson.
