Royals Illustrated

Big Game James

With James Shield’s gracing the cover of one of the regional Sports Illustrated Baseball Previews – there are six total regional covers, the others featuring Justin Verlander, David Price, Clayton Kershaw, CC Sabathia, and Stephen Strasburg (although his had a page limit) – it made me 1) very excited for the season to start and 2) nostalgic for some of the other SI covers that Royals players have been on.
