33-year old lefty Bruce Chen has not only worked his way into the Royals’ starting rotation but he has pitched just well enough to keep the job. Chen has pitched in 26 games (16 starts) for the Royals this year and he is 8-7 with a 4.88 ERA and a 1.54 WHIP. But, Chen has given up 104 hits and he has walked 44 batters this season in only 96 innings so he does have some issues. Still, Chen somehow has a winning record for the Royals and that says something good about him as Zach Greinke (8-11) even has a losing record this year.
