When Dayton Moore became the General Manager of the Kansas City Royals on June 8 2006, he had no idea what he was in for. The team was at an all time low. With a starting lineup full of no-names, the Royals had just lost 100+ games for the 3rd season in a row. They became just the eleventh team in major league history to be that bad for that many years in a row.
Moore wasn’t just expected to build a winning baseball team from virtually nothing, but to restore the community’s faith in the Royals.
