India’s acclimation with the Royals has been rockier than expected. While learning a new team, he was tasked with learning a new position, as the Royals wanted to see if he could play left field at the beginning of the year. It took a toll on his body, and in May, the Royals pivoted to have him play only second base.
“Physically, it’s been a tough year,” India said. “It’s more physical than mental, but maybe mentally, too. I love all the guys here. I love the organization. But maybe I’m just not comfortable. I don’t know what it is. I’ve been searching for pretty much the whole year now, trying to find myself. My passion, my fire. And it just hasn’t come out. I don’t know why.
“It’s just part of baseball. It’s a new team, new atmosphere. … It’s nothing to do with the organization. They treat me with such respect. It’s very structured. And it’s a winning organization, which I love. So it’s me. I just need to get built in here and figure it out.”
