This past season will go down in the annuls of Kansas City Royals history as one of the best ever. The Royals won 95 games, the third highest total in franchise history. After falling agonizingly short last season, the Royals proved their heart and tenaciousness all postseason, using a multitude of improbable comebacks to win their second World Series title.
The Royals currently appear to be on the precipice of their second Golden Age, but are currently at a crossroads. With quite a few openings on the roster due to free agency, how Dayton Moore will fill those openings will go a long way to determining whether or not this new era of prosperity will continue over the next few seasons.
