What’s with the alphabetical listing convention?
I know that a) you hate confrontations on the internet.
But I also know b) that you have self confessed to reading every comment on everything you post.
So, c) what’s the deal?
37 PAs and a 2.7% BB rate.
It’s a SSS, but if this rate continues at 100 PAs then I would expect Puig to have serious regression in addition to the ‘standard’ struggles of a first year player.
Is it possible that he was an unproven talent and pitchers are challenging him early in his career . I love sabermetrics but even they can’t quantify the situational chess match that is baseball .
