Latest Baseball America honor further proves the growth of the Royals farm system

While the Kansas City Royals' season is over, that doesn't mean there isn't plenty for fans to focus on as the fall and winter keep moving right along.

The Royals are coming off a season where the saw countless minor league wins, from Jac Caglianone and Carter Jensen's rise to the majors, to lower level names like David Shields and Carson Roccaforte looking like naturals in their early professional careers, to a successful draft night where they drafted two top-tier talents in the first round.

But out of all them, Kendry Chourio might have arguably been the biggest and brightest of stars in the club's farm system, and he also showed off what he could do in the Dominican Summer League (DSL)

Chourio still isn't 18 years old yet, but the Royals' young pitcher had a breakout season in 2025.
