The Kansas City Royals announced plans to adjust the outfield dimensions at Kauffman Stadium, moving the fences inward by 8 to 10 feet to create a more balanced playing field. The changes, set for the 2026 season, aim to boost offense without turning the park into a hitter's haven. Wall heights will decrease, and new seating will be added in left and right fields.
The Kansas City Royals have agreed to a two-year contract with first baseman Vinnie Pasquantino, avoiding an arbitration hearing. The deal is worth more than $11 million guaranteed and covers his first two arbitration years. Pasquantino, a key part of the team's core, had a breakout 2025 season with 32 home runs.
