The Kansas City Royals starting lineup will be the same one that helped the team reach the World Series for the second straight season.
The Royals will look to do what they couldn’t last year and that’s win the World Series. They will have a tough matchup against the New York Mets but the first two games of the series will start at home.

It will start with Alcides Escobar at the top of the lineup. The All-Star had a .478 BA with 11 hits (2 2B, 1 3B) 5 RBI, 6 Runs. If he can get on and do what he did in the ALCS, it will make it a lot easier for the middle of the lineup against the tough starting pitcher of the New York Mets.
The rest of the AL Champions lineup is as follows: Ben Zobrist 2B, Lorenzo Cain CF, Eric Hosmer 1B, Kendrys Morales DH, Mike Moustakas 3B, Salvador Perez C, Alex Gordon LF, Alex Rios RF. Edinson Volquez will start for the Royals while Matt Harvey will pitch for the Mets.
