Six players in a row with batting averages under .200 Them and the Kanny lineup struggling has really made following the minor league teams a lot less fun this year. It’s honesty feels like we have three legit positonal prospects at the moment (Robert, Madrigal, & Collins). Walker has done fairly well so far, but should be in High A in all honesty. The good news is these guys can only get better and at some point Basabe & Burger will be back in action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a paltry 0.056 previously. Not sure what's going on here, but if this is just bad luck he's in for some big-time positive regression and it will be glorious.

I imagine he'll sit around .265-270 in the big leagues in BABIP given his profile - power hitting lefty who pulls everything on the ground and hits a lot of fly balls. That said, 182 is clearly low no matter what. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird, I thought I remembered reading some terrible larry article on SSS about how there wouldn't be a babip regression for Collins because he sucks (basically every larry article ever) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
