    Photo by Ellen Schmidt/Getty Images Upgrading the lineup is hard. The Royals have had some early success, but it has come in spite of, and not because of the offense. Only three teams are averaging fewer than the 3.40 runs-per-game the Royals lineup is producing. As a team they are hitting .242/.300/.359, and their wRC+ of 83 is fourth-worst in baseball. It is a testament to how dominant t...2025

    • A history of Royals infielders moving to the outfield
    Photo by Ed Zurga/Getty Images Can the Royals transition more infielders to the outfield? The Royals had one of the worst outfields in baseball offensively last year. Their solution to that was to not acquire a single regular outfielder, but instead try converting some of their infielders into outfielders. The team plans to use spring training as a crash course in “how to play the outfield...2025
