Royals keep calm as early season shows patient plan
Kansas City, mO, AP. Royals stand 7-6 with Amos Otis out since April and Darrell Porter in rehab, as rookie manager Jim Frey and GM Joe Burke stay patient. Porter has just returned from the disabled list and Otis is not yet ready to activate, with the team juggling new starters and a reshaped lineup. Otis was hitting 317 with two homers and 13 RBIs before injury, while Porter left mid March for rehab after joining the club in spring training. The club emphasizes readiness over haste, aiming for a strong comeback when both veterans return.
