Kansas City Royals’ season pivots to the rookies. How to handle the new reality: podcast
The Kansas City Royals’ future is now. Bobby Witt Jr. and MJ Melendez have been with the club all or most of they season. Now they’ve been joined by players like Nick Pratto, Michael Massey and Nate Eaton. The final weeks of the season are about getting them major league experience.
That makes the season a little sad — it means the Royals aren’t contending, but interesting at a time when a team with the Royals’ record would be playing out the string.
On today’s SportsBeat KC podcast, beat writer Lynn Worthy and columnist Vahe Gregorian discuss a team in transition. The show started as a SportsBeat Live.
