We’re officially 42 games into the season as of this writing. That’s 70 percent of the way through the season, equal to 113 games in a normal year. The post-season is starting to come into shape, and with the expanded playoffs there are several teams in contention playing meaningful games.
The 2020 Royals are not one of those teams. The 2020 Royals have been... bad. They’ve been bad. I haven’t seen anybody who disagrees with that. However, I have seen several comparisons to last season, and largely it seems like people feel this team is better than the 2019 Royals.
