28 players in baseball have 15 stolen bases or more.
Only three of those have double digit home runs.

Mike Trout 26/12
Jason Kipnis 20/12
Ryan Braun 15/24

Trevor Plouffe has knocked himself in 19 times.
Other Twins?
He's only driven in 17 other Twins.

Other Twins have returned the favor.
While Plouffe has scored on 19 of his own hits,
He's only scored 20 other times.

Jarrod Saltalamacchia feels his pain.
He's scored on 17 of his own homers,
And 17 times by way of his teammates.

Billy Butler has a .290 average, 16 home runs, and 52 rbi
Unfortunately, the backend of the Royals lineup is like the back end of a mule. Full of crap.
With all those great numbers and despite Butler hitting those 16 dingers, he has only scored 31 runs.

The top 48 rbi hitters in baseball all have at least 10 homers.
Adrian Gonzalez has 45 rbi with only six homers.
The anti-Plouffe

Dan Uggla only has 65 hits,
But, he has scored 53 times.

In getting almost 100 less at bats,
Tyler Colvin has as many rbi (40) as Ryan Zimmerman

(Have you watched a Nationals game lately?
Nobody on earth gets more credit for doing less with a bat than Ryan Zimmerman)

Think a lot was expected of Eric Hosmer this year?
Think Chris Davis is having a breakout year?
Davis.. .271/38/14/40/0
Hosmer .231/36/9/39/8

Hosmer also has more hr's and rbi than Justin Upton,
But, so does Cody Ross.

Some folks think ARod is having a great year
13/38/.269
If so, Morneau fans are ecstatic.
11/38/.246

75 players have at least 300 at bats,
Adrian Gonzalez with a 339/6/0 AB/HR/SB ratio
Michael Young 337/3/2
Alex Gordon 332/5/3
Yunel Escobar 331/5/2
Jeff Francoeur 321/1/7
With at least 300 at bats, these are the 'emptiest' hitters in baseball.

In 72 at bats, Lonnie Chisenhall had Michel Young's home runs and stolen bases (3/2).
Justin Ruggiano has already surpassed Alex Gordon's homers and has as many steals.

Ubaldo Jimenez has a 4.50 ERA, a 1.51 WHIP, AND 8 Wins
Cliff Lee has 3.98 ERA, A 1.19 WHIP, and one Win

Jimenez has a 58/51 BB/ER ratio
Romero has a 58/64 BB/ER ratio
Kershaw has a 32/39 BB/ER ratio

So of course, Romero and Jimenez have eight wins.
Kershaw has six.
