The three-man analyst rotation for Royals television has not given any of the broadcasters a lengthy stay in the booth.

But that’ll change this week.

The Royals said Ryan Lefebvre and Jeremy Guthrie are going to be the broadcasters for all six games this week. Those two had done each game of the homestand, with the exception of Sunday night’s contest, which aired on Peacock.

This will give Guthrie, the former Royals pitcher, a bit of continuity in the booth.

There will be a rotation this week involving others. Joel Goldberg will be the sideline reporter for the three-game set at Rate Field in Chicago. When the Royals go to St. Louis, Bridget Howard will assume that role.

Here is how to watch and listen to the Royals’ games this week.

Tuesday: at White Sox, 6:40 p.m. (Royals.TV and 96.5 The Fan)

Wednesday: at White Sox, 6:40 p.m. (Royals.TV and 96.5 The Fan)

Thursday: at White Sox, 6:40 p.m. (Royals.TV and 96.5 The Fan)

Friday: at Cardinals, 7:15 p.m. (Royals.TV and 96.5 The Fan)

Saturday: at Cardinals, 1:15 p.m. (Royals.TV and 96.5 The Fan)

Sunday: at Cardinals, 1:15 p.m. (Royals.TV and 96.5 The Fan)
