I don't think it's some revelation that things will be tougher as we get to SEC play.

That’s obvious but my assumption is that he’s looking a little deeper than that.

If the regulars in our lineup all had similar BB and K percentages, and most were within some standard range of the team percentages, you would probably expect the numbers to be slightly worse in SEC play but nothing too drastic.

But we have some of the guys mentioned above with K percentages likely above 20% combined with BB percentages less than 10%, maybe even less than 8%. They will need to work hard to even keep those consistent during SEC play and not have them become even worse. Then if the guys currently piling up walks start to come back to earth those two things combined could spell pretty significant trouble for the offense.

Again, just my interpretation of his stance and with the assumption that us having one group of guys that walk a ton and strikeout little, and another group of guys that strikeout a lot and walk very little, is a bit out of the norm. It may be more normal than I think, sounds like a good project for you to compare tbh.
