Signed: First-round pick of the Royals in 2002
2009 first half: Went 10-5 with a 2.12 ERA

What might have been? KC has scored two or fewer runs in 12 of his starts.
Cy Young case: Leads the American League in ERA (2.08), shutouts (3), opponents' batting average (.228), opponents' on- base percentage (.272) and opponents' on-base-plus-slugging percentage (.608).
