TKC EXCLUSIVE!!! KANSAS CITY INSIDER PREDICTION: ROYALS STAY WINNING BECAUSE AL CENTRAL SUCKS EVEN WORSE!!!

Here's a bold bit of Kansas City speculation from a very RESPECTED TKC TIPSTER who offers this bit of Sunday optimism.

To wit . . .

A KANSAS CITY INSIDER SAYS THERE'S A CHANCE THE ROYALS MIGHT EVEN WIN THE AL CENTRAL PENNANT BECAUSE THE REST OF THE DIVISION SUCKS SO BADLY!!!

Here's the word:

"TKC, just wanted to let you know that yous shouldn't be so pessimistic about the Royals this season. They've got a real shot. And you'll love this: The reason the Royals have a shot is because everybody else in the AL Central is doing much worse. Chicago and Detroit are looking at major downtrends this year because of organizational problems and really bad recruiting. And the Royals have stepped up their game a bit when it comes to spending. Just wanted to offer you a fair warning. The team might not be so bad this year because, as you've said, they're just mediocre while the everybody else looks to be miserable this season."

As usual, TKC remains skeptical of every pre-season claim of success but this came from a HIGH RANKING KANSAS CITY INSIDER SOURCE and it's a bit of alt. opinion that's worthy of consideration.

And for Sunday as we get a glimpse of Spring, that's the closest we can come to optimism.
