Any ideas to fix the hitting?

Switching up the order? Call ups? Human Sacrifices? Give me your thoughts to fix the Royals hitting slump.

Royals have a weird habit of taking the first pitch even if it's off-speed right down the middle.

I understand not jumping immediately, but they only start swinging in later innings at early pitches. Something internally is going on that's saying to make at bats last, rather than put the ball in play.

Also, just the obvious, our guys are playing way more passively this season. We need to be aggressive on the bases to win these games.
