Jorge Bonifacio is back from suspension. Can he help Royals' historically bad offense?

The Royals are historically bad.

They are on pace to lose 110 games for the first time in club history and have performed at unprecedented levels in June in terms of batting average and runs scored.

But good news is on the way. Outfielder Jorge Bonifacio is done serving the 80-game suspension handed to him when he tested positive for the performance-enhancing drug Boldenone during spring training.

He joined the 25-man roster Thursday, recalled from a rehab assignment one day before the Royals were scheduled to start a three-game series in Seattle. To make room for him, utility man Ryan Goins was designated for assignment.
