Getting Better All the Time
The Kansas City Royals scored twelve runs today as they take down the Devil Rays 12-4. The Royals offense improved each month this season:
| Month | Runs/Game |
|---|
| April | 3.8 |
| May | 4.0 |
| June | 5.4 |
| July | 6.6 |
Since June 1, the Royals are 19-15, tied for the sixth most wins in the majors. No one is hitting for that much power, but five of their regulars are doing a very good job of getting on base. It's nice to see the team improving.
If they keep improving a little bit each month or even keep above .500 for the last few months of the year, they could use that fact to attract some free agents in the offseason, pointing to the Royals being an up & coming power in the AL Central and trying to get players to want to jump on that bandwagon early. This is very good for KC.
