The Kansas City Royals bullpen is going to look vastly different when the 2024 season kicks off. Last season, the team’s relievers put up the second-worst ERA in the entire league.

Before free agent signings, the team also acquired veteran reliever Nick Anderson in a trade with the Atlanta Braves. All of the moves have culminated in a lot of reliever depth and one underlying question as we look ahead to spring training - who’s going to make the cut on Opening Day?
