The Royals have just three series wins all year, and only one against an American League team - the Chicago White Sox. The Royals took three of four from them at home just over a week ago, and will now travel to the Windy City for a weekend set.
The White Sox have been one of the biggest disasters in baseball this year, and vultures are circling the team hoping to pick off some talent for the trade deadline. The Central Division isn’t particularly good this year, and the adage is the pennant season doesn’t really begin until Memorial Day, but with the White Sox already 8 1⁄2 games back with third-worst record in baseball, they may be sunk already.
