The home struggles continue after last night\u2019s loss<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s terrible to think about, but I don\u2019t remember the last time that we kind of won at home,\u201d Royals shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. said. \u201cAnd so it\u2019s one of those things where we\u2019ve gotta get our stuff right and get our stuff together and be ready to play tomorrow.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Royals remain open-minded on how they will approach<\/a> this summer\u2019s trade deadline:<\/p>\n

\u201cIf we\u2019re within striking distance \u2013 and I don\u2019t know what that record would be because .500 seems to be a playoff record right now \u2013 I don\u2019t think we should panic and say the season is over,\u201d Picollo said. \u201cBecause there are just too many games left in the season. We\u2019re trying to build off of something that was really positive last year. Making the playoffs again this year would be really important to this organization and really important to the city.\u201d<\/p>\n
