Joakim Soria, your thoughts?
Umm, no! No former players! That includes Grienke, kick rough ridin' rocks, guys ( don't care if you were traded!).
terrible attitude here, if jguts came back and said pay me the minimum and ill rock out with my male genitals out you wouldnt take it

soria could be a stud for us because you know royals and whatnot

No previous players before the tide turned. I was jk for the most part tho.

Familia should be cheap and he'd probably be decent with a good defense

How rough ridin' great would it be if we got Familia and he just shuts the Mets down opening series. Oh man. That would be amazing.

I'm excited for any 2015 royals alumnus that doesn't get to come back getting a huge standing O in a packed Kauffman stadium in 2016.

Quote

The Silver Slugger Award is awarded annually to the best offensive player at each position in both the American League and the National League, as determined by the coaches and managers of Major League Baseball (MLB). These voters consider several offensive categories in selecting the winners, including batting average, slugging percentage, and on-base percentage, in addition to "coaches' and managers' general impressions of a player's overall offensive value".[1] Managers and coaches are not permitted to vote for players on their own team.[1] The Silver Slugger was first awarded in 1980 and is given by Hillerich & Bradsby, the manufacturer of Louisville Slugger bats.[2] The award is a bat-shaped trophy, 3 feet (91 cm) tall, engraved with the names of each of the winners from the league[1] and plated with sterling silver.[3]

The prize is presented to outfielders irrespective of their specific position.[4][5] This means that it is possible for three left fielders, or any other combination of outfielders, to win the award in the same year, rather than one left fielder, one center fielder, and one right fielder. In addition, only National League pitchers receive a Silver Slugger Award;[5] lineups in the American League include the designated hitter, who replaces the pitcher in the batting order,[6] so the designated hitter receives the award instead.[4]

Is Eric Hosmer the best player in MLB who has never been an all star? Yes, and it's not even close.

Another question is who is the worst all-star?

It could be 2006 Royal Mark Redman: 5.27 ERA pre all-star break
