After a rough week, the Royals are getting pelted with questions about all the young talent they have waiting in their farm system. Kansas City started the season well, but they've hit a skid. "We've gotten off to good starts before," general manager Dayton Moore cautioned. "You've just got to let the players play. It's a game that requires a lot of patience and non-emotional decisions about your baseball team. That's how you've got to look at it." Clubs typically set the initial evaluation period at 40 games —- roughly the first of June. "You want to let guys play and settle into different roles," Moore said. "By then, the league has had ample opportunity, through advanced scouting, to make some adjustments. You certainly begin to see whether players can adjust and readjust."
