The Royals who came closest to joining the 30/30 club

Bobby Witt Jr. has already proven himself to be one of the most unique combinations of power and speed in baseball history. He’s the first player ever to hit 20+ home runs and steal 30+ bases in each of his first two seasons. He’s the seventh player to put up a 25+ homer, 35+ stolen base season at age 23 or younger. And with two more home runs, he could become the first player in Royals history to put up a 30+ home run, 30+ stolen base season.

Joining the 30/30 club takes a rare blend of power and speed.
