The Royals have gotten 4.7 fWAR/6.1 bWAR from Escobar from 2011-current and 2.9 fWAR/2.7 bWAR from Cain.

They're on pace to have totalled 5.9 fWAR/5.9 bWAR and 5.3 fWAR/3.8 bWAR by the end of the year.

It will be interesting to see how they track against Segura long-term. I'm not sure I buy him hitting this well long-term, but he might be one of those guys that just takes a big step up in the big leagues (or he might have borrowed some "Iron" pills from his buddy Ryan Braun).

If the Brewers saw that coming, kudos to them. I don't think anybody else did.
