What we're getting in Brantley

quote:

@Chandler_Rome
Michael Brantley was one of only three qualified major league hitters with a strikeout rate of less than 10 percent last season. Only Andrelton Simmons (7.3%) beat Brantley's 9.5%

@darenw
Michael Brantley swung at 1008 pitches last season and only missed 111 times. His 11% whiff rate was 3rd lowest in
@mlb
. Alex Bregman was 7th lowest.


quote:

Brantley will help balance out Houston's right-handed heavy lineup. The Astros had a .733 OPS against righthanders last season (13th in MLB) and a .803 OPS against lefties (best in MLB).


In the age of the strikeout, this is a very tough team to whiff..

Yuli 63K in 537 AB
Bregman 85K in 594 AB
Altuve 79K in 534 AB
Reddick 77K in 433 AB
Brantley 60K in 570 AB
