The Kansas City Royals continue to barrel toward Opening Day; however, they’ve been missing a lot of key guys. And no, that’s not because of injuries, it’s because they are tearing it up in the World Baseball Classic and most of them are in the semifinals. Here is some of those key Royals and how they’ve fared in the WBC.
Anyways, back in Arizona, the Royals are struggling to win games, but that doesn’t matter a great deal, it’s about getting looks at some younger guys and others fighting for an Opening Day roster spot, which some are getting a longer look because of guys away for the WBC.
Cole Ragans gets the start today for Kansas City against divisional foe, the Chicago White Sox. Starling Marte is the designated hitter today, and a lot of “regular” guys start behind Cole today.
First pitch is set for 3:05 p.m. CT.
