For the season, he has just three walks and 20 strikeouts, a concerning ratio considering that his bat-to-ball skills made him such a highly touted prospect.


We all know Crews was a heck of a patient hitter in College Baseball. The strike outs shows you that AA pitchers absolutely fill the zone with strikes. Not many free passes as you move up.

The fact that AA pitchers fill the zone with vertical and horizontal moving strikes, is scary for players making the adjustments from College ball.

If you think about how good MLB pitching is it really makes you respect the great hitters in MLB that can hit that stuff.

Michael Jordan said he knew he'd never be a big league hitter when he got back to the dugout after a K and one of the kids asked him if they got him on a 2 or 4-seam curveball. And he had no idea.
