There's not a logical answer for that.

according to everything i read about the royals spring training (i'll admit it was very little, but i'd assume KCvollaw and trut know more than i do) he just barely missed earning a starting spot during spring training. he's evidently done anything but underachieve.

Yeah really dominated AA last year with a 3-6 record and 4.69 ERA. In AAA 1-3 record and 5.12 ERA, i'm sure this is what the Royals had in mind when they drafted him.

have you seen him pitch?

he must be doing something right to get to AAA in only 1 year and even get called up to the bigs.

It's amazing how insignificant stats actually are when calling up players to the big leagues.

They probably called him up just because he was the #1 pick in the draft a couple of years ago.

yeah.. they called him up because he's the number pick.

They dropped Hideo Nomo just because they felt compelled to play the number one draft pick.

absolute asinine logic. It's the reason you are on a message board and not working as a GM somewhere in MLB.

if you really think Hochevar only got called up because he was the #1 draft pick not even two years ago, it proves you know nothing about the game of baseball, so don't even try.
