Eminor3rd Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 (edited) Check out these new heatmaps: http://www.fangraphs.com/zonegrid.aspx?pla...10&view=bat Interesting to see that Abreu's batting average is so much higher middle out -- even to the point of being out of the zone. Up and away, really. This seems to support the narrative I've been building in my head that his "sweet spot" is shifted further out than most. Then if you switch over to ISO/P, you see that the power is everywhere. One might even say "errrrywhere." Monster pop, dudes. Monster.

Good amount of meatballs, too. I wonder if those are mostly breaking balls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
