KANSAS CITY -- The Royals have won two of three, somewhat easing a rough start to 2018. And there's a lot of ball left.
Let's get to your questions and concerns in this week's Inbox.
The coaching staff and players are awaiting Salvador Perez's return, which could take place Tuesday. Ned Yost brought up Perez's value again Sunday, reminding everyone what a major blow it was to lose Perez just hours before the home opener. Perez's impact on the staff is profound, and his presence in the middle of the lineup is even greater.
The early guess was likely Abraham Almonte, who was claimed off waivers April 2.
