The Royals have begun the exhibition schedule, and while we have a good idea of who the starters will be when the season opens up on March 28, we have yet to see a preview of what their Opening Day lineup will look like.
We could have a decent idea of how Matt Quatraro will line up his starters from last year. But the team has since added free agent Hunter Renfroe and will get Vinnie Pasquantino back from injury.
Here is my best guess at the Opening Day lineup, with 2024 ZIPS projected stats.
Potential 2024 Royals lineup
