Let’s see Bret. We already know he’s an elite defender. And elite is the word, no exaggeration.

Ah. I see.
Last year in the game action I saw I was blown away by his defensive ability. Couldn’t hit for shit tho. Couldn’t make contact, very Owings like.

His K rate is also down 5 percent over that time span, with his walk rate spiking 5 percent, too.
There’s definitely reason to be optimistic. He could be a Joc Peterson-type player for KC.

He's got a real shot at 40. There aren't too many Royals who've hit 30.

10 pitch AB and a HR for O'Hearn. Nice job for him.

Soler has been a nice return for Wade Davis.
