Yeah, that's certainly a disheartening stat. Thing is, it's generally been a pitching problem for this team. Over the last 2+ decades, we have had NO pitching depth - NONE. This is one of the best lineups we have had since the early 90's pitching staff that won 84+ games.

Like I mentioned earlier:
86-76 2nd in the Central

I'm predicting 85 wins and falling just short of the 2nd wild card.

In 2012, the Royals finished with the 23rd best record in the majors (30 teams) with 72 wins, 90 losses.

*I know this is ridiculous but the Royals are my only shot to have a decent KC team this year.

Actually, we have some pitching depth for the first time in a long time.

LOL at 85+. I cant get my hopes up for this team. Every time I "think this is the year", they let me down. I say 66 wins. Doesn't matter though, baseball sucks.

So if you liked the 3rd place team this year- you are in luck for at least the next two years. In Ned we trust!
