Slumps are unfortunately part of this game that I love so much and every player goes through them at some point during the season. In fact, the entire season is essentially a rollercoaster with extreme highs and basement-dwelling lows. That’s exactly the case right now for Hunter Dozier. The 28-year old has been one of the few bright spots for the Kansas City Royals on an otherwise lackluster roster.
It’s kind of unfortunate that it has taken Dozier so long to blossom, given his age and the state of the organization. That’s not to say he can’t be a valuable piece when this team is competitive again, you just have to hope that’s not 5+ years away or it might be too late.
