After years of struggles, the Kansas City Royals are showing signs of a breakout campaign in 2023. Led by a young core and a rejuvenated Bobby Witt Jr., the Royals have won 13 of their last 21 games and currently sit on the cusp of a postseason berth. Broadcast legend Rex Hudler believes the organization’s commitment to building a new downtown ballpark has played a significant role in the team’s resurgence. The Royals have made several key acquisitions in the offseason, including Seth Lugo, Michael Wacha, and Cole Ragans, who have bolstered their rotation. The team’s defense ranks among the best in the league, and their bullpen and starting pitching have been key to their success.
