  • The Kansas City Royals entered the 2016 season as the defending World Series champions, hoping to reach the World Series for the third consecutive season. Before the season, the team signed free agents Ian Kennedy (a starting pitcher) and Joakim Soria (a reliever) and re-signed star Alex Gordon. However, several players from the previous year's team departed in free agency, including right fielder Alex Rios, second baseman/outfielder Ben Zobrist, and pitchers Greg Holland, Ryan Madson, and Franklin Morales. The 2016 Royals team was adversely affected by injuries to Gordon, center fielder Lorenzo Cain, closer Wade Davis, and third baseman Mike Moustakas. The team was eliminated from postseason contention with four games left in the season, becoming the fourth consecutive World Series winner to miss the playoffs the following year. The Royals ended the season with an 81–81 record, finishing in third place in the Central Division. (en)
  • La saison 2016 des Royals de Kansas City est la 48e saison en Ligue majeure de baseball pour cette franchise. Les Royals débutent 2016 en tant que champions en titre du baseball majeur, ayant gagné la Série mondiale 2015, et doubles champions en titre de la Ligue américaine. L'année 2017 est cependant une saison en demi-teinte où les absences prolongées de joueurs blessés tels Lorenzo Cain, Mike Moustakas et Alex Gordon affectent leur performance. Les Royals ratent les éliminatoires après deux participations en autant d'années et, avec 14 défaites que la saison précédente, ils terminent la saison au 3e rang de la division Centrale de la Ligue américaine avec 81 victoires et 81 revers.
