The Kansas City Royals are officially in offseason mode and have plenty off matters ahead of them that they'll need to tackle in an effort to avoid facing the same disappointment they did this season after missing the postseason once again.
Part of their offseason plans, like many teams have undergone this season, is establishing their coaching staff for 2026.
In the Royals' end-of-season press conference, GM J.J. Picollo stated that the team will be bringing back much of their existing coaching staff, including hitting coach Alec Zumwalt.
While many fans may be less than thrilled that Zumwalt will be back after the inconsistent and frankly underwhelming season Kansas City had at the plate, there will be some changes to the hitting department after all.
