Royals Draft Class Showing Promise | Kansas City Royals News

The Royals’ draft class is quietly exploding with potential, starting with surprise top-6 pick Zion Rose—a power-hitting force who also saved the team money. Under-the-radar lefty Max Yell in the third round could be a hidden gem among their pitching haul. The farm system is deeper than expected, with Josh Hammond possibly cracking the top 100 and others like Blake Mitchell and Ramon Ramirez primed for big league impact. But challenges remain: most elite talent’s still at low levels, and infield depth—especially at shortstop and second base—is thin, despite promising names like Angel Beltr Gomez and Camden Johnson. All this was dissected on the “Royals Pipeline” podcast, where the future looks brighter than it’s been in years.
