Kansas City Royals MLB Betting Odds
For a while, the Kansas City Royals were showing methodical improvement after blowing up their roster before the 2018 season. The Royals had win percentages of .358 in 2018, .364 in 2019, .433 in 2020, and .457 in 2021. However, the Royals slipped to .394 last year, bringing changes to Kauffman Stadium. Kansas City is seven eight removed from a World Series championship and its second consecutive American League pennant.
John Sherman bought the Royals late in 2019 and has long-time ties to the community. Sherman has big dreams for the Royals and enough money to put them to fruition.
The Kansas City Royals are already selling pieces weeks before spring training begins. All fans can hope for is a victory in this year’s MLB Draft. Their first pick comes up at number 8. Hopefully, along with an even better year out of Bobby Witt Jr., the Royals can add another stud to their farm system.

Odds to Win World Series: +42500 (April 18, 2023)
If an award were given to the most inactive franchise through the first six weeks of the offseason, it would go to Kansas City.
Even if the tiny-market Royals could find the space in the budget to sign a big-name free agent, they would need to sign at least four or five to get into the conversation for a postseason berth.
There's a new general manager in J.J. Picollo, but this offseason merely resembled the unproductive ones under Dayton Moore in recent years. They hope for Bobby Witt Jr, Vinnie Pasquantino, and MJ Melendez to turn into big stars and figure out how to build around that trio.
