It's a far stretch from the offensive heavy league of a couple years ago. I wonder what our runs per game rate is this year compared to the last few.
I umped a high school game this weekend where one team had given up 4 runs on 0 hits and that grew to 6 runs on 1 hit after just 2 innings. They somehow still won though.
Yep. His development has been just insane. Obviously just in a platoon role for now with Brown, but he's up for good it looks like. That walk a game average and homer every 10.3 at bats in the minors (plus his over .400 OBP in AAA) made Encarnacion movable, and with him being moved, he gets the promotion.
And like a 25% walk rate. Will be interesting to see how he compares to Dunn as a Three True Outcome type of hitter. I think Adam Dunn broke over 50% at one point.
