You will be forgiven for not noticing, as it is still February and snow remains on the ground from a relentless bombardment of recent winter storms, but baseball has begun. Well, somewhat. Kauffman Stadium remains as bundled up as a kid on one of the two days in the past month they had to go to school. Rather, it is in balmy Arizona that the Kansas City Royals are indeed playing baseball games in the real world with actual umpires and everything!
Sure, it’s spring training, but who cares? It’s BASEBALL TIME! Anecdotally, however, I am sensing much less electricity about the Royals for this upcoming season.
