witesoxfan Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 This is kind of how I've felt about Garcia after seeing him do it all year. There is a real change in talent there, but I wasn't able to contextualize it until now. He's for real, even if he's not a .330 hitter.

Hell, it should be given how confident he was about Avi not hitting .300 and was wrong (again) here.

Last time he successfully completed his workout regime he came up with the nickname "HoT FiRe" when his endorphins were at their peak. I'd imagine we can expect a nickname or two of that magnitude by the end of the regimen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Well this just illustrates to me how important it is to have a complete understanding of batted ball metrics and why I usually argue with those who only use BABIP to promote their theories of "luck" .There are just too variables at play to just use BABIP to understand hitting and why being an astute observer of the the game and using your eyes and common sense tells you almost as much as metrics do. I know it's impossible to watch all players all the time so metrics have merit but unless you come armed with a complete understanding of batted ball metrics I usually rather trust my eyes , experience and observations .
