A double digit Ks from the chosen one today and I'll calling from his promotion straight to the big club!

Benny with ANOTHER triple Over/under on 2 months until Portland? I would take the under at this point. While it lasts, that Salem group is truly special and on another level. |

Benintendi with another 3B. His lack of over the fence power through 6 games has been alarming.

I didn't see anything happen during to him during the game, but Craig was just replaced in right field in the 4th. Hernandez also made a couple great plays at short.

If only Owens had a bit more command. He is too good for AAA, but the walks will destroy him in the majors

Of course, he also has 1 SO, 4 1B, 2 2B, and 4 3B for a .370 / .414 / 741 line. I guess that is pretty good. I don't think he's likely to sustain the 4:1 3B/SO ratio, though. |

Yeah the 4:1 3B/K ratio is going to be tough to keep, but as long as it's 2.5+ he can probably survive in the league. |

Gotta love the B-Ref Play Index. Billy Southworth and Stuffy McInniss actually had 4 3B and 1 SO in 1922 and 1925 respectively, in 182 and 175 PA. Joe Evans had 9 and 3 in 1920. But the greatest such feet has to be Dale Mitchell's 23 3B and 11 SO in 1949, in 685 PA. |

He can live and die on BABIP if he's making contact. |

If you're not even getting deep enough into the AB to create a true outcome, you're too advanced for the league. |

If you're not even getting deep enough into the AB to create a true outcome, you're too advanced for the league. I agree with this-- it's why minor league walk rate is not super predictive of MLB walk rate. We already know he has great plate discipline, so a low walk rate wouldn't be much of a concern to me. |

Are we not all told to not overreact to MLB small sample sizes? So why is it happening for Benintendi?

To be clear, I'm pretty sure Eric's post (and nomar's post before that) was entirely satire and not meant to be taken seriously.

Well, most players won't hit 4 triples in an entire season, so it's a pretty good small sample.

Not crazy about Owens' 7 walks in 12 innings, but he's doing that low hit totals thing again, allowing only 3 so far this year. And I'll take the 14 K's also.

Love his approach and his swing is really tight. |
