He plays for theRoyals there not a good team, plus they use their prospects to bring fans to the games and often their prospects don't develop like they want because they rush them and the Royals record for the last 5 years will back up my statement.
Ian Kennedy is showing signs that he was brought up too early and perhaps the Royals wanted to make sure they didn't make the same mistake they have made over and over and over.
don't use my response to something you posted to defend yourself. Hochevar got called up because of injuries not because they want to increase attendance. However, they are in the process of potentially making room for him to permanently join the big team.
Either way none of this continues to prove your theory that he has underachieved.

Right. Johnny Damon and Carlos Beltran did not develop well in the Royals system. I can add Jermaine Dye to that list as well, since the Royals actually pushed him back down to Omaha to develop after acquiring him from the Braves.He plays for theRoyals there not a good team, plus they use their prospects to bring fans to the games and often their prospects don't develop like they want because they rush them and the Royals record for the last 5 years will back up my statement.

They also kept Bob Hamelin in their farm system for six years.
Oh, and the Royals won 83 games in 2003 (which is five years ago.)
*The only player that KC has ever pushed up in order to sell tickets on hype, was Bo. However, in that situation, I doubt any team would have kept him in the Minors for his entire rookie season.
Burten...doesn't that guy also make snowboards, skateboards, and really kick*ss "I hate the world" clothing? Sounds like he is pretty multi-talented.but travis burten, a random guy on a rotoworld message board, said he's overrated. Obviously we are all wrong trut.
I look forward to it. Oh, and btw, I also have a personal jihad out against Notre Dame until Jimmy Clausen leaves South Bend. So, I have no qualms with them being terrible until...2011???PS, this debate took up way too much of my time on the internet yesterday and I have failed to update your ND list. Please check back tomorrow for more.
