Naturals again welcome Royals Caravan for 2012 Annual winter caravan stopping in Springdale on January 16th SPRINGDALE, AR - Although the grass is not green and the nights are chilly, the 2012 home opener at Arvest Ballpark is less than 100 days away.  With that in mind, the Northwest Arkansas Naturals are excited to welcome the Kansas City Royals 2012 Winter Caravan as it makes its yearly stop in what has become an annual tradition of kicking off a new year of baseball in our area.

Alex Gordon Player Projection No. 100

Via Fantasy Baseball 365  |  January 04, 2012
Key Stats: When I think of Alex Gordon I think of the little engine that could. Not that Gordon is a small guy, at 6'2" and 220 the guy could break me (I'm 6'1" and 175, but probably have a higher percentage of fat). Gordon is the kind of player that people were always projecting for that breakout season that never came. He had power, speed, good defense.....

#17 Bubba Starling Kansas City Royals DOB: 8/3/1992 Previous Rank: N/A ETA: 2014 Starling was the top prep position player available in the 2011 draft.  His tools were the finest in the 2011 class for any position player, though.  He’s blazing fast, throws gas from the outfield, generates outstanding bat speed, and has a frame that projects both in terms of potential and the...

A Look Back At The Worst Royals Team Of All Time

Via i70baseball  |  January 03, 2012
In the last 15 years, the Kansas City Royals have put some pretty pathetic teams on the field.  As some time has passed since some of these historically inept Royals teams have come and gone, it is interesting to take a look back at the worst of them all, the 2005 version of the Royals. Having the benefit of perspective, it really is astonishing to think that anyone in the organization...

Reaping What You Sow: Kansas City Royals Top 10 Prospects

Via The Outside Corner  |  January 04, 2012
Trading away Zack Greinke was a pretty good indication that the Royals were just throwing in the towel on the season, and 71 wins and 91 losses later, we knew they had basically thrown in the towel. That did not mean, however, that they did not utilize the season. Eric Hosmer hit well as a 21-year old. Mike Moustakas had his issues, but you might as well have those when the team...
