Hopefully, this team changes the mindset on that in this clubhouse. Here are the OBPs of the first 5 hitters in the lineup in 2013:
Aoki - .356
Infante - .345
Hosmer - .353
Butler - .374
Gordon - .327 (lowest of his career... career .344 guy)
Would not be shocked to see that group run off .355/.330/.375/.375/.350 as a group. Which would make this, likely, at least an average team in terms of drawing walks. Been a long time since that was the case in KC.
