    He's snake bit, big difference in wOBA and xwOBA and really low BABIP. I complain about his numbers all the time, but he really is hitting much better than his results.

    I get it but 60 games in and that should be correcting itself. He seems to be hitting into the shift more this year even when it’s hard contact. Wonder if that is coming into play with the metrics. And I may just be perceiving that it seems that way

    Freddie still has to beat the shift. If he would learn how to get a slow bunt down the 3rd base line when the entire infield is playing between 2nd and 1st they won't put on a shift anymore. I saw our AA team put the shift on a player who just bunted it down the 3rd base line. He got on safe. We shifted him again. He again bunted it and got on safe. Didn't use the shift for the rest of the series. There has to be something else going on with him. His stats are way below his avg and why has he been hitting 2nd most of season?
