After seemingly finding their offensive groove in recent days with a pair of seven-run outings against the Miami Marlins over the weekend followed by a 12-4 route of the Chicago Cubs on Monday, perhaps sunny skies were starting peak through the grey clouds that have been the 2025 season for the Kansas City Royals.
However, scattered amid these small offensive triumphs have been games that have represented the over-arching struggles this lineup has had all season. They were shutout on both Saturday in Miami and then most recently on Tuesday at Wrigley Field.
The Royals' offense is struggling.
