The Royals get their first look at the three-time division champion Cleveland Indians this weekend as they welcome them in. The Indians off-season was puzzling to most as they seemed to be in cost-cutting mode, dangling both Corey Kluber and Trevor Bauer in trades and actually pulling the trigger on moving Edwin Encarnacion. Their outfield situation is a bit of a disaster, and their struggles have been magnified by Francisco Lindor’s injury that is keeping him out awhile and a long run of futility from Jose Ramirez, who was a real possibility to win the MVP as recently as mid-August last year.
