Kansas City Royals

Manager: Ned Yost (10th season). 2018: 58-104, fifth place. First Workout: Feb. 13/18. He’s Here: OF Billy Hamilton, RHP Brad Boxberger, INF-OF Chris Owings, RHP Chris Ellis. He’s Outta Here: INF Cheslor Cuthbert, RHP Brandon Maurer, RHP Nate Karns, RHP Jason Hammel. Going Campin’: The Royals need more from starting LHP Danny Duffy and RHP Ian Kennedy, especially after RHPS Brad Keller and Jakob Junis flashed late in the season. The bullpen is the biggest question mark with only RHPS Wily Peralta and Kevin Mccarthy safe bets to make the 25-man roster. Also of note this spring: former top prospect Kyle Zimmer says he is healthy and ready to attempt a comeback after injuries derailed his promising career.
