.700-750 OPS That will be mostly against LHP though. -

I would rather watch a televised game on mute than to hear her do play by play, almost rather listen to a game on the radio muted than to listen to her do PBP lol -
I get the feeling he thinks he’s faster than a speeding bullet and it’s worked before. I think you’re right. He has to adjust to the level of competition. Defenses are going to keep getting better as he moves up. He can’t expect defenses to make mistakes.
-
That’s a ton. An average major leaguer throws 63.9% strikes and 27.8% of those are fouled off. So maybe 18% of pitches are fouled off. McDermott probably had 8-9 more foul balls than you’d normally expect. -

No, def not a slam dunk. And yes, I corrected the post - I just think they're similar players right now and Mayo's a lot younger. -
Kjerstad is 3 years older. I think there’s a chance that Mayo is better in the long run but it’s certainly no slam dunk as far as I’m concerned. Now, if Mayo was a decent 3B I’d be more inclined to give the significant edge to him but that doesn’t seem likely on this team unless Elias likes my ideas which seems even less likely.

Seems like a lot of posters think Hays is done as a productive MLB player, so I’m asking posters to go on record with how he’ll do for the rest of 2024. For purposes of my question, performance year to date won’t be included. For convenience, here are Hays’ pages from BB-Ref and Baseball Savant. He’s 28 years old, and has a career OPS of .740 (.769, .719 and .769 in 2021-23). Last year, he slumped in the second half, posting a .667 OPS after the all star break. This year, he had a .539 OPS in 35 PA in spring training and then a .311 OPS in 50 PA prior to going on the IL. His batted ball data has been awful. So what do you say? Washed up? Small sample size fluke? Illness? What will Hays do when he returns?
