Kansas City Royals bench coach Paul Hoover has been appointed as the interim manager of the team after Matt Quatraro was unable to attend the series finale against Texas on Sunday. The team announced that Quatraro was attending to a personal matter, but assured fans that he would be back soon.
Quatraro, who is in his second season with the Royals, has seen significant improvement in the team’s performance this year. Despite losing two games against Texas and six of eight overall, the Royals currently hold a 42-36 record. This represents a 20-win increase compared to the same point last year, making it the largest improvement in MLB this season. The team’s progress under Quatraro’s leadership has been noticeable, and fans are eagerly anticipating his return to the dugout.
