@JArrate25 @Coach_Deck This guy doesn’t slow down with the heat 😮‍💨

@LouisAnalysis @HagenSnellBB @MetsPlayerDev Yessir. Spark plug type of guy

[Mikey O’Connor @OCBaseball814]

@JArrate25 You're so him

[Mikey O’Connor @OCBaseball814]

Patrick Bailey has a .190 wOBA. That’s pretty bad.

His .283 xwOBA isn’t amazing either.

But the 93 point difference makes for the 2nd largest gap in MLB.

Pair that with a swing overhaul & significant bat speed gains.

it’s not hard to see him turning it around

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

BREAKING: The Cleveland Guardians are acquiring two-time Gold Glove-winning catcher Patrick Bailey in a trade with the San Francisco Giants for the No. 29 pick in this year's draft and left-handed pitching prospect Matt "Tugboat" Wilkinson, sources tell ESPN.

Talk about a 3 true outcome player!

Munetaka Murakami has 154 PA

50 Strikeouts (32.5%)
28 Walks (18.2%)
14 Home Runs (9.1%)

92 or 59.7% of his total PA result in the 3 true outcomes

[Driveline Baseball @DrivelineBB]

Few hitters with 40% whiff stick around in MLB.

@whitesox Munetaka Murakami?

✅ Leads the league in HR
✅ 96th percentile Batter RV
✅ 94th percentile xwOBA
