At the beginning of the year, the Royals’ rotation had an average age of 29.4. After injuries and demotions, the Royals currently carry a rotation with an average age of 25.8.

What if I told you that, according to FanGraphs, the Royals from March-May got 1.9 fWAR from the starting rotation and from June-August they got...1.9 fWAR from the starting rotation. Turns out the team doesn’t have to be better to be more intersting; it just needs more hope.
