Billy Butler plays first base for the Kansas City Royals. At age 23, Billy showed that he’s growing into a dangerous power hitter. He raised his batting average to .301, his OBP to .362 and his slugging percentage to .492. He’s growing into his minor league slash line of .336/.416/.561. Those are MVP type numbers.

Despite Kauffman Stadium being a fairly neutral park, Butler has performed much better at his home field than on the road. He’s hit 25 of his 40 home runs in KC. He’s also produced a lot of power with men on base, the type of hitting that results in high RBI totals. In 2009, he drove in 17.9% of base runners, a high percentage. If the Royals can ever put good table setters in front of Billy, he could produce some outrageous RBI totals.
