Are the Royals in a down cycle or was the two-year run over the past 20 to 25 years an uptick?

If we don't start seeing gains by 2021 it'd benefit us to start thinking about moving on. Last edited by Chiefspants; 04-11-2018 at 05:42 PM.. |

I’d say it was more of a 4-5 year uptick. 2013-2017 was the contention window. It took seven years to build to that point (and five to get the guys they used for that window to the majors). You’d hope to shave 2-3 years off the build/re-build timeframe at this point, but not sure that’s realistic. |

I think it was easily 5 years. They've been in the playoff chase each of the last 5 years. They faded a little bit earlier last year but it was the end of July and they were in great position. That's a pretty decent run.

Watching the Red Sox and Yankees game. Carlos Febles is the 3rd base coach for the Red Sox now. Yes that Carlos Febles. I had no idea.
