We are nearing the end of 2024, and what a remarkable year it was for the Royals. I tried to be optimistic in my predictions a year ago, but I don’t think even the most positive Royals fan could have thought the team would improve by 30 games and make the playoffs.
As for my other predictions last time, Bobby Witt Jr. did sign a long-term deal, but John McMillon did not really pan out at all here and the stadium vote fell with a thud. So take these predictions with a grain of salt. Still, it’s fun to dream about the future, so here are my Royals-related predictions for 2025.
