Next up on the docket of five straight series against the atrocious American League Central: the 42-96 Kansas City Royals.
Ah, the Royals. The City of Kansas. Live Stock. Barbecue. Rex Hudler. Pedro Grifol. The ghosts of Ned Yost*. All of the most annoying things.
(*Ned Yost is alive and well to the best of my knowledge, but what would a tongue-in-cheek preview piece be without a little wordplay self-amusement?)
Oh, Kansas City. The one team White Sox fans can reliably expect to be worse than our own team.
