Sep. 16--CLEVELAND -- Even David DeJesus isn't sure how to evaluate his season.

From one perspective, his .268 average represents a 27-point drop from last season and is the result of some atypically extended slumps.

The flip side is DeJesus is just two runs shy of becoming the first Royal since Carlos Beltran in 2003 to score 100 runs, leads the club in RBIs despite spending most of the season as the leadoff hitter and sports an on-base percentage that approximates his career mark.

So what gives?
