As we gear up for the 2025 MLB season, the Kansas City Royals are at a pivotal moment. After making the playoffs for the first time in nearly a decade last year, expectations are high. But did they do enough in the offseason to build on that success?

The Royals made some strategic moves, like acquiring Jonathan India to bolster their lineup, but many fans are left wondering if they should have pushed harder for a power bat in the outfield. With Mark Canha now in the mix, is this a case of a sneaky good acquisition, or did they miss a golden opportunity?

Let’s dive into the predictions and opinions from our community. Some writers are optimistic, projecting the Royals to win around 90 games and potentially take the division. Others are more cautious, suggesting they might struggle to reach 80 wins. What do you think?

How do you grade the Royals' offseason? Did they make the right moves, or are they setting themselves up for disappointment?

And what about the lineup? With players like Bobby Witt Jr. and Vinnie Pasquantino expected to lead the charge, who do you think will be the X-factor this season? Can players like MJ Melendez or even Jac Caglianone step up and make a significant impact?

As we look ahead, what are your bold predictions for the Royals this year? Will they advance past the Division Round, or are we in for another season of what could have been?
