Today's his 20th birthday. Has anybody actually been watching him that would have insight into why he's struggling? The k:bb ratio is still very good 71:60. He has a pretty interesting line as he's k'ing too much at 28%, but walking at an exceptional rate 23%. Is he just that overwhelmed? Is he hurt? It seems like he's been forgotten, but he's a $1.2M signing that's still very young for A+.

I show his K rate as 21.9% with a walk rate of 18.5%, where did you pull those numbers from?

His BABIP is pretty low too, I’m sure part of the low avg obviously.

Looks like he divided by at-bats instead of plate appearances to calculate the percentages. Someone else made that same mistake in a Wolkow discussion the other day.

That's exactly what I did. Thanks. I thought the bb rate was absurdly high and didn't think about it.
