KANSAS CITY -- Coming out of Spring Training, expectations for the Royals weren't exactly soaring.
The club had lost numerous free agents, including Eric Hosmer, Lorenzo Cain and Mike Minor. And Royals general manger Dayton Moore had made it clear in the offseason that the rebuild was on. Hard times were ahead.
But no one, including Moore, expected a 14-30 start, one of the worst in franchise history.
"No one is satisfied with the record, and that includes me," Moore told MLB.
