You should know better than to play this game. I can see right through you when you manipulate statistics. Yeah they have like 10 playoff appearances, and about six of them were right in a row at the beginning of that stretch as part of one of the best teams in recent baseball history. Then two of them were the last two years. There's about a 13 or 14 year stretch in there where they had two playoff appearances and one of those was a wild card game loss.
On top of that, they went 5 straight years without a winning record before Francona got there. And three of those were 90 loss seasons. No one would argue they've had more consistent success than the Royals but your argument was that they've never had a down cycle.
