Who needs pitching?

Kansas City--

The Bluebirds have been rolling, after starting 4-6, they now sit at 10-9 and currently tied for first place with Honolulu in the AL West. During this turnaround, KC has been getting decent pitching performances from their starters, good relief pitching and a TON of offense...

In their last 9 games, they have put up the following run totals..22, 9, 21, 18, and 14. They have also held their opponents to 4 runs or less 4 times in that stretch, not good, but definitely better than the first week or so.

"I like the way the team has been gelling, they pick each other up. We get somebody on base, he's usually going to touch home plate. We have a good mix of hitters who hit for power and average." "I must also talk about our recent addition Oswaldo Jacquez. He's hitting .378 with 13rbi, 2 homers and a sb in 45 at bats...Not to mention his obp is .440. I think we got ourselves a great player"

KC has also been winning within the division, a key component for any team who wishes to be a contender.

"You have to win around 60-70% of your divisional games to have a really good chance of winning the division. We struggled out of the gate losing 3 of 4 to Honolulu, but we're 5-1 since that series within our division, we currently stand at 6-4" Quoted Lariel Martin, who is tied for the team lead in homers with 9.
