no, not in the slightest. Billy Butler is one of our best hitters, would be worshiped in New York or Boston, and is hobbled only by his lack of defensive ability.

Billy Butler leads the league one year and people freaking lose their minds over it. GDP is a stupid, random, flukey stat that shouldn't exist. No one should pay any attention to it.

That aside, The top 5 in GDP last year, in order, was Pujols, Adrian Gonzalez, Miguel Cabrera, David Ortiz, and Torii Hunter. If that doesn't tell you that GDP is a stupid, worthless stat, I don't know what would.

Oh, and the Royals GDP leader last season was Frenchy.
