After 39.1 innings of uninspiring baseball with the Padres in 2017, Brandon Maurer was shipped to the Royals in a midseason trade that caught the attention of many. Unfortunately, he brought his struggles with him. With an offseason to find and fix the issues with his game, can Maurer bounce back in 2018?
If you haven’t read my Kings of Kauffman season preview for Kevin McCarthy, I highly suggest doing so. Kevin is a reliever looking to carry his 2017 success into this season. A Royal that didn’t experience much success last season was Brandon Maurer.
