For some reason the only Royals info we get here in UET and SW Va are Jimmy Gobble highlights (and lowlights ).
the underachiever talk was just stupid and it's far to early to ascribe greatness.

He definitely has the tools for greatness. He'll have to work very hard to realize it, just like the vast majority of those who have achieved it.

I doubt volnbama has ever heard of Koufax, but he was awful for the first half of his 12 year career. The second half, he was just the best pitcher ever over a similar span.
