Royals News
The Kansas City Royals are floundering, with their bats silenced in a dismal stretch that included a 2-10 shellacking by the Cleveland Guardians. After averaging just one run per game over their last three losses, it’s clear the offense is in dire straits, leaving fans pleading for accountability, particularly towards hitting coach Alec Zumwalt. In a desperate attempt to salvage the season, the team has made notable moves to address the struggling bullpen, but with a record now standing at 5-7 and a run differential that reflects their woes, these changes may be too little too late. Meanwhile, amidst these struggles, the franchise is trying to secure its future with plans for a new stadium, a much-needed distraction from the grim realities on the field.
