Rizzo

[jersey cubs fan]

I'm confused with some of those sentences.

You can look for hope in small sample stats, the problem is you don't know if that hope is real or imagined. These are based on long term data. In the short term you don't know if his low babip or LD% is because of poor luck or poor hitting. They generalize major league stats as every line drive or ball in play is the same. In reality you can hit "line drives" all day that are never going to hits-ever. They are not going to jump up to a normal MLB percentage because they aren't hit well. Unless you analyze every single ball hit, you can't judge whether the babip should go up...much like Stewart last year. I don't think Rizzo is in that category but posting these stats as "proof" things will change and everything is just fine with him is ridiculous. Things may be fine but those splits are meaningless in that argument.

I am more encouraged by his consistent contact and multiple hit games over the past week, than by low babip or his early OPS.

Do you even think?

Really? I thought it clearly showed a huge trend and was a definitive answer.

You guys are right. I'll join the club. I think Rizzo, based on his last 7 games is heading for a .400,50 hr and 140 rbi season with an .800 slg, .1200 ops because that's what his split is, so it has to be true.

 

or maybe we should re-post the batting tips for Rizzo because guys here are better hitting coaches than the ones that are employed by the major leagues and work with tons of tape on his swing.

Wait now you're making everyone else in this thread out to be the crazy ones? Have you accurately comprehended a single post in this thread?

You have some major issues with reading comprehension.

 

You make valid points at times but it is never anything that the majority of regular posters here don't already know and understand.

"by my computations, it shows that because he has a ld% of .150 in 5 day games, he'll hit .350 and his fWAR will be 40..."

Might be hard to OPS .1200 with an .800 SLG.

He's either 6 or 96. There are no other possibilities.
