Name that player!

Bob slammed 22 home runs in the minors in 1968 and earned for himself another big league shot with the Royals. This receiver is a fine handler of pitchers & should see lots of duty in 1969.

Who is it?

Brady was part of a Royals staff that was the first in history to have five pitchers make a start for the team that drafted them in one season. Brady's slider lost over four inches of vertical movement down in the strike zone compared with 2020. The Royals hope minor adjustments here and elsewher...

Who is it?

After making just 31 total appearances in the Minors, Hochevar saw action as a September call-up for Kansas City in 2007. Inserted into the Royals rotation in '08, he won three of four starts from 4/26 to 5/14.
