“It’s sad,” Moustakas said Thursday at the Royals’ spring training camp in Surprise. “You know, losing a member of our family and the Royals family, it’s really sad.”

Gore died in early February from complications following a medical procedure. He was just 34.

“As great as a baseball player as he was — you guys saw what he was able to do on the field with all the speed — he was such a better person,” Moustakas said. “Just a great human, a great friend, father and husband.

“And, you know, we miss him a lot. We love him and his family. This organization is so great, we are going to do everything to help (his family) out.”

The Royals sent a touching message to honor him. The organization selected Gore in the 20th round of the 2011 MLB Draft. He played five seasons with the Royals and became an integral part of their World Series teams.

Gore was deployed primarily for speed and defense. He thrived in the role, beloved by teammates and fans alike.
