The Kansas City Royals are actively seeking offensive improvements, particularly from left-handed hitters, following their performance in the American League Division Series against the New York Yankees.
Despite a commendable 86-win season and a Wild Card spot, the Royals' offense, aside from Bobby Witt Jr., fell short. This offseason, they've re-signed Michael Wacha and acquired Jonathan India and Joey Wiemer, but they might also consider free agent Joc Pederson, who excelled as a left-handed bat last season.
Pederson, now a seasoned player, posted impressive stats with the Arizona Diamondbacks, showcasing his power against right-handed pitching. While he has limitations defensively, his potential as a designated hitter or outfield bat could be valuable for Kansas City.
