K-Men, Volume 1: Birth of the Core

It was a cold day in December 3 years ago, when Professor M made his first bold move. He swapped a young man with all of the potential in the world for a set of men with tremendous skills and powers which would eventually give rise to the birth of the K-Men. This is the beginning of their story:

Alex Gordon was drafted by Professor M in 2005. After a tumultuous start to his career, he finally realized the potential of his powers and has become the undisputed leader of the K-Men.
His special powers include his laser-like throws to stop opposing players, as well as unequaled athleticism. His foes do not dare look him in they eye, lest he throw them out.
He also is well-loved by women, and is a known lady killer when his eyes are exposed:
Greg Holland came next, in 2007. Once he made it onto the K-Men roster in 2010, he has become lights out, a bloodthirsty killer on the mound. The strong, silent type, his powers include a dangerous arsenal of pitches designed to make even the best opponents wince.
His nickname is the Saveman, but he only saves the K-Men.
Professor M made his next great move soon after getting Saveman. This time he traded a cool but wicked pitching wizard (Zack Greinke) for two young guys, Alcides Escobar and Lorenzo Cain. Under the tutelage of Professor M and his circle of advisors, both Escobar and Cain have flourished, often flashing their esteemed skill and power to the delight of fans.

Escobar has powers unparallelled powers of defense, often seeming to appear out of thin air to snatch basehits from opponents.
He can vanish into the dark of the night, leaving only a cloud of smoke before returning stealthily to steal from those who try to defeat the K-Men.
Cain exhibits superhuman capabilities while patrolling the outer edges of the K-Men's fortress. It has often been said that the earth's oceans cover 2/3rds of the planet, while Cain covers the other 1/3rd.
He can be seen chillin' like a villain while defending the K-Men.
Together, Gordon, Holland, Escobar and Cain make up the core of the K-Men. And together, they fight to avenge their devastating loss suffered at the hands of their archenemy, the Giants of San Fancisco. They will not rest until they have avenged their loss. They will not allow injustice to be served to their brethren. They are the K-Men and they are #ForeverRoyal.
