The baseball season is over halfway done and the All-Star game is behind us. I just wanted to take a look at where the Royals are relative to the league across a range of team stats before we head into (hopefully) an interesting playoff chase.
Here is how the hitters stack up so far:

All of these are ranks highest to lowest, so K% being low is good. The offense has been better than I think most people think it has been. Glaring lacks of production across half the team have been covered up by Bobby Witt Jr.
