After playing over 940 games, through 10 years in the minor leagues, do you really think he would care who the pitcher was?

I'd say that's the main reason I'm not in the bigs leagues right now. My coaches just kept making fun of me and telling me that....so I called it an early retirement. You may not be aware, but in my day, I could throw 78MPH from the right side.

We could use a power arm like that.

"He's worked hard to be average at four or five positions." Is that kind of a backhanded compliment?

Well, in most organizations, it would be.
However, if you are "average" at anything in KC, you are our star player.
