pettie4sox Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 QUOTE (Knackattack @ Sep 6, 2015 -> 02:07 PM) MJ is probably the best hitter this system has developed in years lol Tell him to bulk up and hit HRs and he can DH then.

Flash Tizzle Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Johnson has good command of his fastball and locatea his changeup well. His breaking ball leaves something to be desired though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember back in 2005, we had a 12-16 record in August and in mid-September we had a 4-10 stretch? The Royals aren't playing their best right now but their best is as good as anyone when the find it. Don't judge teams by what they're doing at their best or at their worst. 2 weeks later it can look very different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, but I'm not judging them so much on their play right now but just thinking about their starting pitching and how they match up. They're probably the most complete team all around, though.

ChiSoxFanMike Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Sep 6, 2015 -> 02:50 PM) Based on? He has 12 as a leadoff guy. His job is to get on base, not hit homers, but he does anyway. There's no doubt in my mind that he'd be a 25+ homer guy if he tried to hit them out every at bat.
