I’m not a big fan of the whole Pitcher Wins statistic, but I think it says something when it’s been NINE YEARS since two pitchers on a team have gotten ten or more wins in a season.
I will be using this statistic heavily when trying to write a positive preview of the Royals chances in 2009.
Greinke allowed just one earned run in his three previous starts and still ended up with one loss and two no-decisions. His 10th victory extended his career high and matched Gil Meche for the club lead.
It also marked the first time since 1999 that two Royals reached double figures in victories. José Rosado and Jeff Suppan each won 10 that year.
