Just four years removed from their first World Series title since 1985, the Kansas City Royals are on the brink of losing 100 or more games in back-to-back seasons for the first time since the 2005 and 2006 seasons. Several key players from the 2014 World Series appearance squad as well as the title winners have departed.
Royals’ current owner David Glass has reportedly agreed to sell the team to a group led by John Sherman for $1 billion. Change can often be a good thing and most people are encouraged that Sherman is from Kansas City and he received a major endorsement from former KC Mayor, Sly James.
