Where They Stand: Kansas City Royals

... , and Brian Bannister almost surely having the other four spots. With the hope of filling this need, they signed veteran left-hander Horacio Ramirez. The 29-year-old last started in 2007 for the Mariners, putting up a 7.16 ERA in 20 starts. If he's pitching anything like that, you absolutely cannot have him in the rotation. In his career as a starter though, he's 38-29 with a 4.55 ERA. There is one move Moore made this offseason that everybody can agree with, and that's signing Zack Greinke to a four-year extension worth $38 million. Greinke, 25, has arguably the nastiest ...

In the ninth he got two outs but let up a pair of singles. Dan Quisenberry, came in, struck out one batter, and got the save and the glory. Black with his 3 1/3 innings of shut out ball with the pennant on the line got Gotch. THAT'S why we have the "Hold" stat.

Projecting the Royals' 2009 Pitching With Bill James (Seriously, It's Just a Title)
Published 12/1/2008 by devil_fingers at Royals Review
... Banny's projection, especially the ERA projection, looks very encouraging -- like he's a #3. I guess I think Banny's 2008 shows why FIP-type stats are so telling no matter how smart people think you are or how much love Joe Posnanski throws your way. I'll wait and see what the other projections systems say. If he can be a #4, again, he got picked up for ...

Game 157: Royals (72-86) at Tigers (71-85)

Brian Bannister (8-16, 5.96) vs. Nate Robertson (7-10, 6.15) Two teams enter fourth place tonight at Comerica Park, one team will leave in last place.  The city of Detroit is still reveling in the Lions' long overdue firing of Matt Millen this morning.  It would be nice if the Tigers didn't harsh that mellow with yet another loss that would make them the sole occupant of the AL Central basement.  Brian Bannister has fallen on some hard times for the Royals.  In his previous start, the White Sox knocked ...

... Pierre, South Dakota.  Bannister is 53 today. Bannister spent most of his career with the M's and Astros, being a mild disappointment for a #1 overall draftee. And he spent his final season (1992) in the Rangers bullpen, not pitching well.  That Ranger team included such immortals as Mario Diaz, Ray Stephens, Edwin Nunez, Mike Campbell, Steve Fireovid, Russ McGinnis, and the Doug Davis Who Wasn't A Pitcher. He's also the father of current Royals starter Brian Bannister. ...

Monday's Bunts and Boots--Timid Tigers, Animal Bannister, and Showboat Gomes
Published 4/8/2008 by bruce at Bruce Markusen's Cooperstown Confidential
... Observers continue to be surprised by the success of Kansas City's Brian "The Animal" Bannister, largely because of his lack of velocity and a general paucity of strikeouts. But should we really be surprised by Bannister's continuing mastery of American League hitters, especially after his dismantling of the Tigers in his 2008 debut? Bannister owns a terrific curveball, throws strikes with regularity, and mixes his pitches with the kind of artistry that one would expect from the son of a former major league pitcher (his father is former Mariners and White Sox lefty Floyd ...

... good shot to win in Seattle but they faltered big time down the stretch. I’ll give my vote to Mike Scioscia of the Angels. While the starting staff stayed mostly healthy besides Bartolo Colon, the Angels got 150+ games out of only two position players, Cabrera and Vlad, yet cruised to a division title.

Game 52 - Open Thread
Published 6/1/2007 at Rays of Light
Scouting Report on todays starters from MLB.com Brian Bannister - Bannister tossed seven innings of four-run ball against the Mariners on Saturday night at Kaufman Stadium. The young right-hander only made one mistake: a first-pitch fastball that Kenji Johjima hit for a grand slam. Overall, Bannister was typical Bannister: pitching to contact and moving his pitches around. He walked two and didn't strike out a batter in his outing, his longest of the season. Bannister needs to use his four-seam and two-seam fastballs to be effective and must locate his pitches well to have success. So far, he has done that in all six of his starts this season. ...
