The Kansas City Royals are generating some buzz as we look ahead to the 2025 season, particularly with the impressive projection for Bobby Witt Jr. His potential to be a serious MVP candidate has many fans excited, but it raises some intriguing questions about the team's overall direction.
While Witt's talent is undeniable, the projections suggest that the rest of the Royals' lineup may not be able to keep pace. With only Salvador Perez joining Witt in the 2 WAR club, can the Royals truly compete in a division that seems to be tightening? The projections indicate a possible 82-85 win season, which is tantalizingly close to playoff contention, but is that enough?
What do you think the Royals need to do to bolster their chances? Should they be more aggressive in the trade market or free agency to upgrade their corner outfield spots? With MJ Melendez and Hunter Renfroe projected to be replacement-level, is it time for the Royals to take a risk on a high-upside player or invest in a proven veteran?
Moreover, how do you feel about the Royals' pitching staff? With Cole Ragans and Seth Lugo leading the rotation, do you think they have what it takes to support a playoff push? Or are there concerns about the bullpen depth that could derail their efforts?
Let’s hear your thoughts! What bold predictions do you have for the Royals in 2025? Will Witt rise to the occasion and lead the team to new heights, or will the lack of support from the rest of the lineup hold them back? Share your insights and let’s discuss!
