I was at the game last night and agree with your analysis. The Royals look competitive this year. Not a playoff team or close, but competitive (and the low turnout from the Orioles fans was an indication of how the Royals are viewed throughout the league). Lack of situational hitting (and talent) is going to be a problem, and the bullpen is ok but not more than that. Obviously, the starting pitching has been very good so far. But we had great seats and Bobby hit the crap out of that ball, and that’s what I’ll remember.
