When will the Royals be royal again? What will Alex Gordon do?

from SportsBeat KC Hosted by KCUR and The Kansas City Star

The 2019 season has mercifully ended for the Royals. It couldn’t get worse than last year when they lost 104, and it wasn’t. They lost 103. How long will it take for the Royals to regain competitiveness? Even just-retired manager Ned Yost has thoughts on that. Star columnists Sam Mellinger and Vahe Gregorian take on that question and others with host Blair Kerkhoff. They cover what’s in store for popular outfielder Alex Gordon and who will be the next Royals manager?
