Real or Easy?
Royals Authority wonders if the strong end to the season by Kansas City is real progress.
I don't see enough progress or enough updside to really get too excited about their closing finish. It's always better to win than lose but Buck, Aviles, DeJesus, Shealy, Teahen are all 28 - 29 not 22. Gordon, Butler haven't shown enough progress to expect a lot and Bannister needs a major bounce back. Greinke and Soria have been great but I don't see enough upside to warrant a big change in expectations.
