As we dive into the 2025 season, the Kansas City Royals are at a pivotal crossroads, particularly with MJ Melendez's swing changes and the overall lineup dynamics. Melendez, who once showcased a staggering 41-homer season in the minors, has struggled to find his footing in the majors. With a lackluster .206 average last year, the Royals are banking on his potential to transform their offense.

What do you think? Can Melendez finally tap into that power potential, or is he destined to be another what could have been story? If he does find his groove, how drastically could that change the Royals' lineup?

Moreover, with Bobby Witt Jr. standing out as the team's superstar, how do you see the rest of the roster shaping up? The projections suggest a lack of depth, but could players like Salvador Perez and Vinnie Pasquantino step up to provide the support needed?

And let's not forget about the prospects. With three players making MLB Pipeline's top 100 list, how soon do you think we’ll see them making a significant impact? Are the Royals on the verge of a resurgence, or are we looking at another rebuilding phase?

Lastly, with the recent rule changes regarding shifts and base running, how do you think these will affect the Royals' strategy moving forward?
