Certainly hampered on this list by his lack of defensive skills, Billy Butler was best used as a Designated Hitter, a role he spent approximately two thirds of his Royals career at. Focusing on his offensive skills, Butler was a more than capable DH winning the Edgar Martinez Award as the DH of the year in 2012. Five years in a row (2009-13) he would hit 15 or more Home Runs and he would post two .300 seasons with a decent career Royals Batting Average of .295.
Far more than a player who feuded with Ed Farmer (Google it) Al Cowens was a good defensive Rightfielder who would provide 784 Hits for Kansas City.
Joe Randa was drafted by the Kansas City Royals in 1991 and he would work his way up to the main roster only to be traded shorty after to Pittsburgh, drafted by Arizona in the expansion draft, traded to Detroit, then the New York Mets and then back to the Royals again. It was in that second run with the Royals where the Randa would go on the greatest run of his career.
