• Royals spring training battles: The bench

Photo by Frank Jansky/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Will the Royals have more depth this year? The Royals began camp with a pretty good idea of who the starters were this year. Eight-time All-Star Salvador Perez will be behind the plate most days. The outfield will likely feature Hunter Renfroe in right, Kyle Isbel in center, and MJ Melendez and Nelson Velázquez splitting time between ...2024

• Maikel García, Dairon Blanco, and other Royals star in winter leagues

Photo by Michael Zagaris/Oakland Athletics/Getty Images The games have continued overseas. Winter is not a time of year that Americans associate with baseball. Most of the country is hunkered down, watching football or basketball and waiting for the snow to melt and the weather to warm up so we can all get outside again. I’m doing the same. As I type this the temperature outside is in the ...2024

• Royals base running aggression in 2023

Jay Biggerstaff-USA TODAY Sports The Royals took advantage of the new rules to steal more bases than most teams, albeit at a slightly worse success rate. The rules changes were a huge part of baseball’s story last year, so as we head into another year under the new rules I wanted to review what the Royals did or did not do to take advantage of them. First up, base stealing. Under the new...2024

Nico Hoerner steals second base against the White Sox on the South Side | Photo by Melissa Tamez/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images The Cubs stole a lot of bases in 2023, they may be able to steal even more in 2024 One of the biggest question marks heading into the 2023 season was how the new rules would impact the game.

• Could the Royals take on someone’s salary dump?

Photo by Rob Carr/Getty Images The Royals need to spend money one way or another. The Royals desperately need to improve and while J.J. Picollo says they have around $30 million coming off the books, a 106-loss team isn’t the most attractive free agent destination. The Royals could still spend, however, by taking on contracts other teams may be looking to dump. It may sound unappealing to ...2023
