Summary
The Royals had everything to build on—MVP-caliber Bobby Witt Jr., rising stars Carter Jensen and Jac Caglianone, and even an All-Star pitcher in Michael Wacha. But instead of contending, they’re tied for the worst record in baseball, thanks to injuries and a pitching collapse that’s exposed deep roster flaws.

Wacha’s been the lone bright spot, but without a strong foundation, the team’s future looks shaky—unless they fix their depth before next spring.
