Hitting Statistics as of 3/26

I’ve played baseball from T-Ball through college, and I just can’t contextualize batting efficiency by OPS alone. I weigh BA and HR higher, but that’s just me.

Here’s the SEC play only batting averages for those interested.

Braswell - .333 6/18
Pearson - .320 8/25
Travinski .300 6/20
Jones .273 6/22
White .240 6/25
Bingham - .222 6/27
Milam - .111 2/18
Kling .000 0/10
Neal - .000 0/15

3 players batting worse than Milazzo

thanks

Looking at the glass half full....when you look at individual SEC batting avg for other teams, we are right there. Florida only has 3 guys hitting over .300 in SEC play (granted 2 of the 3 are hitting over .340 and the other one is hitting over .400). Tennessee only has 4 if you exclude a guy that only has 6 plate appearances ( All 4 are hitting over .360 with one hitting .417 and our averages would be higher as well as HR totals if we played home games at Lindsey Nelson). Arkansas only has 1 guy hitting over .300. Georgia only has 3...etc etc

We know that Tommy White can hit SEC Pitching and Jared Jones is doing about what we had hoped. The problem is this black hole of Milam, Neal, and Kling that other teams dont seem to have. The good news is, we have options to replace Milam and Neal. Maybe you just let Kling work through it for now. He has to come around at some point.
