Royals Weekly - Kansas City Royals Podcast

The Kansas City Royals snagged a winning home stand last week, but it still feels like they left some wins on the table after splitting with the Guardians and taking two of three from the Tigers. They'll face more adversity as Cole Ragans hits the IL with a left elbow issue. Can Stephen Kolek fill the void? What does this mean for their vaunted pitching depth? They get a chance to take down the surging Chicago White Sox (yeah you read that right) and in-state rival the St. Louis Cardinals this week.

Plus, some Mother's Day shoutouts!

The Kansas City Royals swept the Los Angeles Angels to end last week. Will that be the spark that turns the team around? The offense came alive scoring 29 runs over the three-game series. Is it fixed? Or does more need to be done? The Royals have a chance to keep the momentum rolling, as they head to the west coast for series against the Athletics and Mariners.

The Royals had a BRUTAL week against the Tigers and Yankees last week filled with blow ups and clubhouse spats. And yet, a few surprising stats stand out in the early going (some bad, some good). The Royals have a chance to get back to winning this week at home.

The Royals can't close out the White Sox and finish with a losing weak. The offense is a lead weight around their ankles, but the pitching is keeping them afloat. Maybe a trip out east will help the offense get on track.

Plus, Mike delivers a flawless Al Pacino line.
