Evaluating Royals relief options

Two seasons ago, the Kansas City Royals had one of the worst bullpens in franchise history. Not looking to repeat that, the front office made it a point to improve the relief pitching that offseason. They signed free agents and made trades to that end. Not every move they made worked out, but the bullpen was considerably better in 2024. The Royals haven’t made any notable additions to the unit this offseason, but they have many more options to fill out the group than they did a year ago.
