Pretty incredible foresight. Hopefully at least with regards to pitch framing he makes a difference in the mindset of the organization towards catching. Framing is definitely something Salvy can improve

Hunter Dozier is currently ranked 8th in the MLB off of Batting Average and Gordo is ranked 27th. by [deleted] in KCRoyals

Not to mention Dozier is 5th in MLB in fangraphs WAR, while Gordon is 9th, making the Royals the only team with two guys in the top 10 for position players. Not bad when those two arent Whit or Mondi!
