The 2018 season is over, and we're now starting to see some transactions and roster decisions being made.

For the Royals, their 2019 team is not likely to change that much from the team that ended 2018, but there are definite opportunities to improve the team for next year and beyond. We discussed how active they might be and where they may try to direct their attention. While most of baseball looks at the big names, the Royals will be out of the marquee free agent battle

Along with that discussion, we also talked about some of the next wave of talent and some of the difficulties of developing and moving talent up the ladder.
