This is a make-or-break year for the Royals, whose championship nucleus will try to guide them back to the playoffs after missing out last year. The biggest hurdle is replacing starting pitcher Yordano Ventura, whose tragic death in a car accident in the offseason leaves a gaping hole in the rotation.
Eric Hosmer, Salvador Perez and Alex Gordon will be the heart of Kansas City’s lineup, and having a healthy Mike Moustakas, limited to 27 games due to a knee injury, will make that lineup all the more potent. Lorenzo Cain should be a threat on the basepaths and Jorge Soler, acquired from the Cubs should provide pop in right field.
