Baseball America loves UA's Dalbec, worred about Ks
Baseball America last week ranked UA pitcher/hitter Bobby Dalbec No. 18 overall in projections for the June draft. Dalbec is ranked as the top college home run hitter available. Baseball America wrote, however, that he comes with a caveat. “He struck out in 41 percent of his plate appearances in the Cape Cod League and has whiffed in 24.2 percent of his plate appearances in his first two years with the Wildcats. That is higher than any player drafted in the first round in the past 10 years.” Power sells now in MLB. Swing-and-miss rates? Do you think anyone ever kept track (or cared) how many times Babe Ruth or Barry Bonds swung and missed?
