Most baseball stats are flukish in the short term and not really predictive. Even with 50+ games, you throw in the early part of the season where it's cold weather and players are still semi- shaking off rust, a minor injury or two, and playing weaker competition OOC and in midweek games, and you don't have that many games to assess any one particular player against good competition where they are 100%.
