Salvador Perez is returning for his 15th season with the Kansas City Royals. The club has reasons to be optimistic and pessimistic about what lies in store.

The Royals are making strides to better themselves in 2026, but could always use help from their rivals, such as Tarik Skubal getting traded out of Detroit.

The Royals are now in the thick of January and still have yet to address their starting pitching surplus. And Edward Cabrera's trade to the Cubs won't help.

The Kansas City Royals are better today than they were two months ago, and national writers are taking notice.

Michael Wacha has quietly been Kansas City's most consistent pitcher since 2024. But should fans celebrate, or worry about regression in 2026?

In MLB Pipeline's 2026 Rookie of the Year poll issued to league executives, Royals top prospect Carter Jensen received a shockingly low amount of recognition.

As the MLB offseason enters the 2026 stage of proceedings, there's some potentially under-the-radar headlines the Royals faithful ought to know.

Giants' GM Zack Minasian stated Monday that they feel content moving forward with their current starting staff, potentially eliminating a Royals trade partner.

While free agent Kyle Tucker could be set for a shorter-term contract now, Royals fans shouldn't suddenly think that he's a feasible target for them now.

The Royals added to their depth on Monday, signing veteran Jorge Alfaro to minor league contract, but their catching search shouldn't stop there whatsoever.
