Unfortunately, MLB Network and a lot of other baseball info outlets seem to think the only thing he ever did was put pine tar on his bat. Batting .390 with 24 homers while playing half your games in the pinball machine at Royals Stadium is really something. Never really had a bad season in his career, either... kind of like Musial or Williams that way.
Sorry he didn't become a Royal for you; I freely admit I would have probably assigned him to KC when he came along
