They made a significant jump up 10 spots after holding a 0.84% chance at the No. 1 pick heading into the lottery.<\/p>\n<p><!--]-->[&#8211;><\/p>\n<p>KC will select in the draft lottery for the second time in three seasons.<\/p>\n<p><!--]-->[&#8211;><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s awesome,\u201d general manager J.J. Picollo said. \u201cWe had less than a 1% chance to get the first pick. We probably should\u2019ve been closer to 15th or 16th. To get the sixth pick feels like a little vindication. (It\u2019s) just because we were so disappointed a couple years there with how much we fell when we had good chances and a high percentage to get the first pick.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!--]-->[&#8211;><\/p>\n<p>The Royals were one of three American League Central teams remaining among the final six hopefuls. The Minnesota Twins earned the second pick and the Chicago White Sox won the lottery with a 27.73% chance.<\/p>\n<p><!--]-->[&#8211;><\/p>\n<p>Last season, KC finished 82-80 and just missed out on the postseason. Now, the Royals have a prime opportunity to add a high-level prospect in the 2026 draft.<\/p>\n<p><!--]-->[&#8211;><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe higher you are, theoretically, the better player you should get,\u201d Picollo said. \u201cSo, there are other meanings to that pick, too. There\u2019s finances attached to that pick. So you are picking sixth instead of 12th or 13th or whatever. It\u2019s a pretty significant difference. Those slots drop considerably from one to 10. So, if you\u2019re in sixth in this case, you\u2019re in a much better spot. The way we like to approach it is we like to take the best player available.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!--]-->[&#8211;><\/p>\n<p>The Royals have found success with the sixth pick. The club picked Jac Caglianone with the selection in the 2024 MLB Draft. Last season, Caglianone made his MLB debut and finished with seven home runs and 18 RBIs in 62 games.<\/p>\n<p><!--]-->[&#8211;><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s possible the Royals will start to evaluate the top MLB Draft prospects now. Given their new spot, a few higher-regarded prospects will now come into play. There is a chance the Royals could find a long-term solution while fielding a competitive team in 2026.<\/p>\n<p><!--]-->[&#8211;><\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt does give you some flexibility to think about how you want to run your whole draft,\u201d Picollo said. \u201cHow can you use that more effectively and get a deeper draft?\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!--]-->[&#8211;><\/p>\n<p>The 2026 MLB Draft is scheduled for July 12-13, 2026 in Philadelphia.<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--]--><!--&gt;--><!--&gt;--><\/p>\n<div class=\"zone grid\">\n<div class=\"related-stories story-module\">\n<h5>Hist\u00f3rias relacionadas de Kansas City Star<\/h5>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"story-module\">\n<div class=\"author-card \">\n<div class=\"thumb\">\n                <a target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kansascity.com\/profile\/274524051\/\"><\/p>\n<p>                    <\/a>\n        <\/div>\n<div class=\"article-details\">\n<p>                <a target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"author-name\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kansascity.com\/profile\/274524051\/\">Jaylon Thompson<\/a><\/p>\n<p> <!-- Added as per FE-855 --><\/p>\n<p>                    <span class=\"credit\">A estrela de Kansas City<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <!-- Added as per FE-855 --><\/p>\n<p>                     <!-- End of class=\"social-media\" --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>            <span>Jaylon Thompson faz a cobertura do Royals para o The Kansas City Star.
