	It's been a rough season for the Royals, as they sit in second-to-last place in the AL Central at 32-45, as of June 19th. There has been plenty for Royals fans to complain about this year, especially considering the optimistic expectations with this team after an 82-80 campaign in 2025.&#xA0;...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">4414</guid><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 11:54:02 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Daniel Lynch IV Finally Found His Place In Kansas City</title><link>https://royalskeep.com/news-rumors/kansas-city-royals/daniel-lynch-iv-finally-found-his-place-in-kansas-city-r4409/</link><description>Few players spend as much time caught between promise and production as Daniel Lynch IV did.

	Hopes were high for Maikel Garcia going into 2026.&#xA0;




	Last year was a dream season of sorts for the Venezuelan infielder. In 160 games and 666 plate appearances, he slashed .286/.351/.449 with an .800 OPS.
