## Resource

Bobby Witt Jr. is on track for another Gold Glove, leading the majors with 23 Outs Above Average and poised to join elite company if he hits 25 in a single season. Meanwhile, the Royals’ downtown move reignites debates over the Power & Light District’s costly past. On the roster, Nick Loftin’s future hangs in the balance as Maikel Garcia returns, forcing tough financial decisions. Craig Kimbrel’s Royals stint has been a rollercoaster—underwhelming at times, but with flashes of brilliance despite a shaky bullpen. And down in High-A, teen phenom David Shields is rewriting records with wins, strikeouts, and a microscopic WHIP, cementing his status as one of the team’s brightest prospects.
