Through the first 29 games of this regular season, something has become very apparent about the Kansas City Royals organization: they are either completely daft or they are insulting their fanbase’s intelligence with the moves they make (or don’t make). This team, as constructed right now, is completely hopeless and has no future. Back-to-back series losses to the Texas Rangers and the Baltimore Orioles will back that up.
The Rangers, unlike the Orioles, aren’t actively trying to lose but have constructed such a top-heavy team with too many holes to compete with a juggernaut like the Houston Astros.
