The Royals advanced to the World Series against the Mets with a win over the Blue Jays Friday night. And now the Mets will have their hands full.
I am not an expert on the Royals, but they have a fine team, as evidenced by their American League-leading 95 wins in the regular season. They have a well-rounded roster — a balanced lineup that features power (six players with double-digit home runs), average (three players hit above .290) and speed (three players with double-digit steals).
The pitching is very good.
