Because the Royals approach wasn’t tanking.

2005-2007 were awful because of the gross, gross incompetence of the previous GM and staff.

The Royals never did the “we want to be as bad as possible to get pick leverage” thing. They didn’t ship off all tradeable assets right away (or Soria and Butler would have been moved).
