Even though the Kansas City Royals’ season is done, that doesn’t mean baseball is over. While I enjoy postseasons where the Royals are playing, I still closely follow the MLB playoffs, even if the Boys in Blue aren’t participating. That said, as a Royals fan, who should we be cheering for this postseason without our… Read More The Royals Reporter’s Rooting and Betting Guide: Wild Card
The Royals fell short of the postseason this season, even though they finished with an 82-80 record, their second winning season since the 2015 World Series. While a season over .500 is something to be proud of, especially considering the pitching injuries they dealt with, it seems like the Royals are aiming to return to… Read More Six Former Royals to Watch in the MLB Wild Card Round
In the last game of the 2025 season, the Kansas City Royals beat the Sacramento Athletics 9-2 in a comfortable victory. The win brought their season record to 82-80, the Royals’ second consecutive winning season, following their 86-game win total in 2024. There’s no question that this season was a bit of a disappointment, especially… Read More Royals Finish Off 2025 Season On Positive Note
The Royals play their final series of the year in Sacramento against the Athletics this weekend, starting tonight. As someone who grew up in Sacramento, it’s weird not just to see the A’s in a different city (I always associated them with Oakland), but playing in Sutter Health Park, a park I got to play… Read More “Reporter Jottings”: Five Royals Extension Candidates at Just Baseball; Kolek and Lorenzen Finish Seasons
The season is over for the Triple-A Omaha Storm Chasers, and it was a tough season, to say the least. After winning an International League title in 2024 with an 89-59 record, the Storm Chasers went 62-86, tied for last in the IL West Division with the St. Paul Saints (the Twins’ affiliate). Granted, Triple-A… Read More Five Omaha Pitchers Worth Paying Attention to This Offseason
I was able to go to the last Royals regular game at Kauffman Stadium on Sunday, which was my 28th of the season at the K. I was hoping for the Royals to complete the sweep of the Blue Jays, not only to keep their slim playoff hopes alive, but also to improve my in-person… Read More Wacha and the Royals’ Young Hitters Stick Out in Regular Season Finale at the K
It was Fan Appreciation Day on Saturday at Kauffman Stadium, and the Royals sent the crowd of 25,774 home happy with a 2-1 victory over the Blue Jays. It was a much different game from the 21-run slugfest Royals fans saw on Friday night. Both teams had four hits and left six runners on base.… Read More Cameron and Witt Thrive in Royals’ Final Home Night Game of Season
Royals Director of Media Relations Nick Kappel shared an interesting Tweet today after Kansas City’s offensive explosion on Friday night that resulted in a 20-1 victory over the AL East-leading Toronto Blue Jays (yes, you read that score right). If one thinks about it, the Royals’ offense has been a bit of an anomaly this… Read More Analyzing Three Royals Hitters Who Could Be Key for 2026
The Royals dropped the rubber game of their three-game series with the Seattle Mariners on Thursday afternoon. They lost 2-0 in a game that was all too typical of many Kansas City defeats this season (i.e., great pitching, non-existent hitting). With the loss, the Royals’ record fell to 76-77, officially eliminating them from any shot… Read More Three Encouraging Royals Takeaways From the Mariners Series
The Royals were off Monday as they prepare for their final homestand of the season against the Mariners (Tuesday through Thursday) and Blue Jays (Friday through Sunday). It won’t be an easy stretch, especially with both Seattle and Toronto at the top of their respective divisions. On this off day, I wanted to dive into… Read More Using PLV to Evaluate Four Royals Hitters With Undetermined 2026 Outlooks
