Why do the Royals (12) and Rangers (11) account for over 25% of all hit batter? Rios is out for 3-6 weeks with a broken finger after being hit by Minnesota yesterday.image

    Minnesota pitchers couldn't hit water if they fell out of a boat.

    It's early - it could just be chance. KC batters were hit less than the average team last year.

    Rumor is that the Royals get too excited about getting hits and homers and the beaning is intentional to shut them up.
    The Royals and fans have been getting tired of it and then you get to last Friday night.

    Have you read/seen anything about this series from this past weekend?

    I miss Youk. I love how he leaned over the plate with that huge elbow pad! Sure helped his on-base percentage!
