Three worthy KC Royals players are the winners of the franchise’s annual team awards.

The Kansas City Chapter of the Baseball Writers’ Association of America handed out its year-end awards recently. The selections of three KC Royals are hard to argue with.

In his last season, Alex Gordon took home the Joe Burke Special Achievement Award. Although his final season was not as offensively productive as was hoped, there was still much to celebrate for the long-time Royals outfielder.

Gordon chipped in another four outfield assists on his way to earning his eighth Gold Glove and second Platinum Glove awards.
