The 2023 Kansas City Royals season was the 55th season for the franchise, and their 51st at Kauffman Stadium. It was also the team's first season under the management of Matt Quatraro. They were eliminated from playoff contention on August 29 for the eighth consecutive season. Their 56-106 record tied the 2005 season for the lowest win percentage (.346) in franchise history.

Offseason

The Royals finished the 2022 season 65–97, 27 games out of first place.[1] They missed the playoffs for the seventh consecutive season.

On October 5, 2022, the Royals fired manager Mike Matheny shortly after the season ended. Matheny went 165–219 (.430) over three seasons with the team.[2]

Rule changes

Pursuant to the CBA, new rule changes will be in place for the 2023 season:[3]

  • institution of a pitch clock between pitches;
  • limits on pickoff attempts per plate appearance;
  • limits on defensive shifts requiring two infielders to be on either side of second and be within the boundary of the infield; and
  • larger bases (increased to 18-inch squares);
