KC Top Prospects
Five top-100 prospects start the season at the MLB level for the Royals with their top three prospects all at AAA level. With another four top-60 prospects at AAA this could prove to be a golden generation for the Royals and they will hope to see Bobby Nickelberry, Ben Lane, and Joe Davis all round out their development in Omaha and earn a spot in Kansas City at some point of the season.
MLB Top Prospects
There are only two of the top 20 prospects in baseball starting in MLB this eason but they are the numbers 1 and 3 players so excitement is understandably high. Behind them, there are five players at AAA, including the three Royals, who will all hope to make a big league impact during the season.
MLB Farm Systems
The Royals own the top farm in baseball which is no surprise with 14% of the top 100 prospects in baseball. This is one area the Royals are ahead of the Dodgers with their World Series rivals down in 27th. Stewart would trade most of the farm, though, for a first World Series!
