So you could make the argument that Cumbest is still hitting at a high average DESPITE having some bad luck hitting it right at defenders.
Edited to add: it's important to note that Cumbest has roughly 1/3 the ABs as the rest of the regulars, so his sample size is significantly smaller
Your BABIP is way off. He is at .486 which is very high and he most likely will regress. Hits-HR/AB-K-HR+ Sac is the formula
