    Photo by Ed Zurga/Getty Images Cole Ragans gets his first Opening Day start 2023 was miserable for Royals fans. Sandwiched between back-to-back championships across the parking lot, the other tenant of Truman Sports Complex lost 106 games, tying a franchise record. It was the third 100-loss season in five seasons, not including 2020. General Manager J.J. Picollo responded by being as acti...2024

    Photo by Omar Rawlings/Getty Images The Royals want to win on the field and at the ballot box Royals fans have seen their fair share of rebuild movements. Sometimes they pan out, like when they “flipped the switch” in 2011 with Salvador Perez, Eric Hosmer, Mike Moustakas, Alcides Escobar, and Lorenzo Cain, the group that went on to win two pennants and a championship.

    • The narrow path to 90 wins
    Denny Medley-USA TODAY Sports The path to the playoffs is narrow, and it’s unlikely the Royals will find it. Every year, I put the Royals’ schedule into a spreadsheet and follow a simple formula to create a path to a 90-win season: Win or split series at home. Win or split road series against weaker teams. Don’t get swept. I don’t figure in any sweeps and split all four-game and two-game...2024

    Photo by LG Patterson/MLB Photos via Getty Images It is baseball week. Anne Rogers previews the season and makes a bold prediction - that the Royals win the division. If the Royals manage a 20-win swing in 2024, they will still finish 10 games under .500. The Twins won 87 games last year. The AL Central is a weak division that has only gotten weaker with injuries and departures, but the Ro...2024

    Photo by Frank Jansky/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images The Twins needed only 87 wins to take the division title in 2023. The ceiling probably won’t be much higher. In 2023, the AL Central was easily the worst division in baseball. It wasn’t in danger of going full 1994 AL West or anything, but at the All-Star break, the Cleveland Guardians were in first place at a dead-even 45-45. All four...2024
