New Royals GM Burke vows steady build for Kansas City
Bespectacled 50 year old Joe Burke takes over as Kansas City Royals general manager. He plans a twofold mission to restore a world championship outlook while balancing the budget after a reported $900,000 loss. Burke emphasizes building from within around trades, cites Yankee Dodgers Cardinals traditions, and notes expansion is over. He recalls a long path from Louisville Colonels to pro baseball, influenced by wife Lingie and mentors, including Pee Wee Reese.
