Crazy idea but stay with me!
Move Royals downtown. Then instead of having the millions in the budget to take Royals stadium out just turn it into the practice/viewing stadium. Give players A+ facilities instead of F like we have now.
The way they can fund it is renovate to add a huge screen that will broadcast the live game next door in Arrowhead!
People will come tailgate with everyone else but come game time pay a fraction of the cost to come into Royals stadium and watch the live game on a huge Jumbotron screen. Still have all the beer and food vendors/restaurants like a real game.
Not only do you get away from the expense of demoing the stadium but you turn it into a revenue stream to give players state of the art facilities and help renovate Arrowhead.
Build the rolling roof and upgrade a few other thing at Arrowhead and call it a day!
