Baseball resumes this week, with the Kansas City Royals reporting to spring training in Arizona.

 

The Royals have made a number of offseason moves to improve both the lineup and pitching, and look to take a leap forward and compete for a division title and postseason berth.

 

Team broadcaster Rex Hudler says the team did a nice job of finding pitchers that fit the team identity.

 

The organization also recently signed Bobby Witt Jr to the largest contract in team history, locking up the star shortstop for more than a decade. Hudler says it's promising that a star player wants to be in KC long term.

 

Kansas City is expected to compete with the Twins, Guardians, and Tigers for the 2024 AL Central division championship.
