Some quick knee-jerk reactions now that the season is over

The season is over, as the Royals fell in four games to the Yankees in the ALDS. The Royals had an incredible bounceback season after losing 106 games, but also face a lot of questions as we begin the off-season. Just a few quick thoughts.

  • The Royals did have an amazing season that they should be proud of, and no one expected them to get this far. However, it was still a missed opportunity to fall in the ALDS. There are no guarantees Bobby Witt Jr. ever has a season like this again, or that Seth Lugo performs like a Cy Young contender, or that Cole Ragans stays healthy, or that Salvy continues to stave off Father Time.
