The Kansas City Royals are facing a challenging start to the 2026 season, sitting at 0-2 after a shutout loss on Opening Day and a blown save in game two. Seth Lugo, who had a strong 2024 but struggled last year, is set to pitch against the Atlanta Braves in hopes of securing the Royals’ first win. The Braves, despite missing key players, have performed well, scoring 12 runs with four home runs in their first two games. The Royals will adjust their lineup slightly, hoping to improve their offensive output before their home opener.
