Least Talented Teams of All Time: How did KC avoid populating this entire list?

Excepting maybe 3-4 years, just about every Royals team from 1994 to the present could be on this list. - TL

That list doesn't even make sense without the royals

"Sir,--It has been wittily remarked that there are three kinds of falsehood: the first is a 'fib,' the second is a downright lie, and the third and most aggravated is statistics." *The National Observer* (June 13, 1891): p. 93-94.

I am fine with this because of the word "talent"

I know being a one-time all-star isn’t exactly indicative of a fantastic player, but it had to be based on some evidence. Those teams may have sucked, but they were populated with loads of talent, from Beltran to Dye to Appier to Sweeney to Damon to Ibanez to Rosado

Also since we had a different scrub each year for an all-star instead of one star that got it every year this might have kept us off the list. So we might have had a super crappy team that had 7 all-stars including Ken Harvey, Mike MacDougal, Mark Redman, and the likes.

I am the one who knocks.
