CAPackFan95 "Hey y'all! Wanna hear something crazy? Sure you do.
The Kansas City Royals as a team have 23 Ks through 177 PA (SO% of 13%)
Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton alone have 26 Ks through 74 PA (SO% of 35%)"
Strikeouts Are Bad Club "Surely the Royals are the class of the season thus far and the combo of Judge and Stanton has been a colossal failure thus far. Ned Yost gets a lot of crap around here, but he's an old school guy and he's done a great job sitting down with the Royals players and getting them to think TEAM instead of these glory boys like Stanton swinging from their heels and trying to jack dongs every swing. Choke up with 2 strikes. Put the ball in play and make something happen. Advance the runners over like I was taught as a kid. What happened to learning the game the right way? Remember that time when Ryan Braun struck out with a runner on 3rd and 1 out when simply putting the ball in play would have scored that run!
Everyone but stat nerds like you knows that strikeouts are bad! Why it's right in our groups name! I for one love seeing Royals play the right way"
CAPackFan95 "Also...
- The Royals have an OPS of .552; Judge and Stanton alone have an OPS of .896
- The Royals have scored 14 runs; Judge and Stanton alone scored 11 runs
- The Royals have 13 RBI; Judge and Stanton alone have 12 RBI
- The Royals have a SLG of .285; Judge and Stanton alone have a SLG of .531"
Strikeouts Are Bad Club "But putting the ball in play. But but moving the runners over with a ground out to the right side. But but but Productive Outs. FUNDAMENTALS!!!!!!!!"
