The Kansas City Royals appear to be ready to make another run at the playoffs in 2017. With most of their core left from playoff runs in 2014 and 2015, Kansas City Royals fans should be excited about what the rest of 2017 has left to offer.
As excited as Royals fans ought to be about the final 88 games, things are not going to be as easy for Kansas City as they were in prior years.
The Royals have a couple of glaring holes in their lineup that must be addressed before any serious talks about playoff contention begin, but help may be closer than you think.
