23 Days Kansas City Royals Comment

Salvador Perez smashed a two-run homer on Saturday, powering the Royals to a 3-2 victory over the Indians.

After getting off to a very slow start at the dish, Perez has picked it up in recent weeks and is now hitting .273/.278/.390 with one homer and eight RBI on the season.

Wilin Rosario came out of relative obscurity to lead all major league catchers in home runs last season with 28 big flies (one more than A.J. Pierzynski). I for one was called out for spending $8 on him in the LABR NL-only league last season. Obviously I had the last laugh on that one. Even [...]

I had the gall to suggest in late December that I wasn't sold on Salvador Perez being a .300 hitter with 20 homer power for 2013. Seems like I touched a nerve because a whole lot of people called me out on the BaseballGuys' Twitter account for the statement. I thought I would take more [...]
