Considering these projections are based off last year's stats, every fan that looks at these should take them with a grain of salt.

yes they are very similiar to last year, but the team shows hardly any improvement in hitting and no development of players. as a royal fan and high school scout, the lack of development will equal a very similar year...yes the pen is better but not much better. and for all u fans that do not like it, dont worry this will not be the team come opening day...sanders and sweeney could both be gone.

ps nice site tho

I agree with most. HUGE improvement on what the starters were like last year. No need to feel sorry for the Royals fans. Although I would like to know (I understand it may not be possible)what the projections on Alex Gordon would be.
