    Is Betemit for real?

    Looking at the stats this morning, and Betemit is still hitting .340 with SLG of .566. Is he for real? How long can he keep this up? He certainly buys us time so we don't have to rush Moustakas.

    He's typically flashed some ability, but he's always been the utility guy while bouncing around. Highly doubt this is who he really is, but the royals should ride him until the fire flames out.

    The thing that pops out most to me is Betemit's plate discipline. Its nothing to write home about, but he is drawing a few walks and is striking out less, both of which are good things to make this season maybe a bit more legit...

    The words Angelo Berroa and Mike Aviles come to mind

    HA! I'm still rooting for Aviles too

    Betemit appears destined to be the utility guy next year. Hope he can play the outfield.

    He has the ex-Dodger castoff mojo working for him.
