The KC Royals are struggling. They’re in last place in the American League Central, Tuesday night’s loss to Boston was their seventh straight defeat and marked the eighth time they’ve lost in their last 10 games, and postseason play is rapidly becoming a dream for next season, not a realistic possibility for 2021.
The future, though, is bright. Kansas City’s farm system is loaded with talent which should put the Royals back in serious contention in 2022. One look at the minor league standings going into tonight’s games reflects the quality of players the organization is preparing for the majors.
