The team did not overachieve last season. A few individual players did better or worse than expected, but as a whole they did pretty much what was expected. On paper, they have gotten better and the division as a whole has gotten worse.

Again, there is no good reason for someone who calls themselves a Royals fan to predict a losing season. It obviously could happen because baseball is a very random game, but 80 wins is very low on the probability distribution.
