The Royals are stumbling towards another season in the cellar, but all is not lost when it comes to the long-term future of this franchise. The Royals are getting some impressive performances from players who figure to be here awhile like Adalberto Mondesi and Hunter Dozier, and the farm system is showing signs of life after being dormant for many years. One of the shining examples in the organization is Nicky Lopez, a young infielder playing for Omaha, the same town where he played collegiately at Creighton. Lopez has quickly become a fan favorite with his attitude, his high-contact approach, and his ability to do a bit of everything well on a baseball diamond.
When should we expect the Royals to call up Nicky Lopez?
