When you open spring training posted at 500 to 1 to win the World Series, you probably aren't going to generate much enthusiasm as a dark horse even in your own division. Kansas City doesn't project as having favorable odds as the wildcard team either. While according to most projections the division is weak, Kansas City isn't strong enough to take advantage. The Royals have a couple intriguing players in their batting order, plus a solid all-star at second base.
However, like most rebuilding teams, Kansas City will suffer through a few agonizing moments of growth. They have a new face at third base, and a staple of their defense and team leader will return behind the plate. Having a veteran catcher could help the pitching staff, but no one within the Royals' top-five strikes fear in opposing batters. Kansas City will need a new young star to jump onto the scene to be anything more than average with the current lineup they have.

Kansas City Royals FAQ
Another team in the rebuild is the Kansas City Royals, but they at least have their prospects up in the bigs to get excited about. Adalberto Mondesi broke out onto the scene last season and is one of the up and coming shortstops in the game. He is also a threat to steal anytime he gets on base. There are only a few players from the World Series team on the roster, like Salvador Perez. He will be the everyday catcher as expected. Alex Gordon will be the starting left fielder, but isn't quite the same guy at the plate as he was a few seasons ago. Now the Royals were able to unlock Jorge Soler's power last season and will be looking for more of the same. They landed Maikel Franco, who was once a top prospect.
