It is a tale as old as time. A player has a good season or two, receives a multi-year contract from their organization, and never seems to find those good seasons again. While it’s a bit early to call the entirety of Hunter Dozier’s contract with the KC Royals a bust, he hasn’t gotten off to a good start in the first year of a four-year, $25 million contract.
Now slashing .192/.259/.362, fans are actually gaining a little excitement for the third baseman/outfielder. Typically, .192 isn’t anything to get too excited about, but for Dozier, that is a high point of the season.
