Final Thoughts

The 2019 season is going to be a lot to follow. A lot of attention should be focused on the minor league systems this year so that we can monitor the development of the Royals future core. If the future core continues to have success and develop like they have shown they can, the Royals will be competitive sooner rather than later. If they stall or struggle, then we can anticipate the rebuild taking a bit longer.

This year should be better overall than 2018, or at least we all hope it will be. The team as a whole has a lot more areas where they can improve, and everyone has different “hopes” when it comes to the 2019 season. However, in order for the turn around to be quick, the Royals are going to need these five hopes to turn into a reality.
