One game in and Jorge Soler is already sitting

After a disastrous Opening Day and a Friday off-day, the Royals are ready to get back at it against the White Sox tonight with Ian Kennedy facing off against Lucas Giolito. Already the lineup has been posted, and Ned has tinkered with the outfield alignment.

Ned Yost has decided to sit Jorge Soler after one game, in favor of getting Paulo Orlando in the lineup. Orlando plays center, with Alex Gordon moving back to left field and Jon Jay in right.

Soler went 0-for-3 with a walk in the season opener, and seemed to play adequately in right field.
