The Royals are off to a good start! This is exciting! It’s the best start they’ve had since 2016. Of course, we all remember how disappointed we were with how 2016 finished. The promising season was derailed by injuries to Alex Gordon - who was never himself after that - and Mike Moustakas, who missed almost the entire season. The team was just unlucky. Or were they?
If you were disappointed in the 2016 Royals, I have good news for you! This team is unlikely to share that team’s fate. I’m not promising they’ll win, but if they lose it won’t be for the same reason.
