Royals Review, a Kansas City Royals community

Nike has come out with a shoe honoring Bo Jackson's time with the Royals.

Spurred by philofthenorth's recent FanShot linking to THT's analysis of 2008's Kings of Three True Outcomes, my latest article at Driveline Mechanics "responds" by briefly looking at the five qualified players in the majors this year with the lowest TTO rates. Of course, since I somehow screwed up the "auto-publish" function after I finished it last night, it didn't publish this morning like I had planned, so probably even fewer people than usual will read my drivel... Sadly, no Royals qualified for the list of guys who "make the defense work," the "pressurizers." In honor of the boys in (powder) blue, I did an all-time single season ranking list (min 500 PAs), as well as a list for the 2008 season. There are some interesting things on both lists. I decided to make the minumum 75 PAs this past season just for some fun... Revealing stuff, sort of.
