Chris, you’re a legend. You’re one of the biggest Soto collectors I know! I’ve told you 10 times already, but absolute beautiful card!

Hey all! Been a while since I've popped in here.. Was just browsing through and saw this post that I actually figured out the answer to a few days ago.

Ideally without counting 'reached by fielder's choice.' Hell, maybe even just limit it to hits and walks so he doesn't get credit for HBP/WP/PB either.
Counting only hits, walks and HBP:
9 games on base 5x (3 of the 9 are this season)
5H - 1x
4H, 1BB - 2x
3H, 2BB - 1x
2H, 3BB - 2x
2H, 2BB, 1HBP - 1x
1H, 4BB - 2x

60 games on base 4x
4H - 4x
3H, 1BB - 20x
3H, 1HBP - 1x
2H, 2BB - 16x
1H, 3BB - 16x
4BB - 3x

117 games on base 3x
203 games on base 2x
203 games on base 1x

- He's played 680 games so far, so he's reaching 4+ times/game in over 10% of the games he plays.
- Only has 88 games over his career that he hasn't been on via H, BB or HBP.
- Reaching base at least 2x in almost 60% of his games.

Hey Reggie! Been quiet with cards for a while, but it's looking like it might be a good time to start buying again.

Yeah he sucks but...

Never leave it up the umpire with 2 strikes, swing the bat. ZERO %% chance of hitting the ball taking strike 3.

Are you saying players should swing at balls when they have two strikes? Even when the pitch isn’t even close?

According the graph posted above called strike three (pitch 5) was close enough to swing at. Pitch #2 obviously not.

It’s fine you show a graph of called strikes but it’s happening all over the league so it’s not only Soto suffering, might be wise to not post these in the future to explain why Soto didn’t hit or whatever.

I love card collectors assessments its hilarious. Should I buy this prospect "No! His K Rate is too high!" Should I buy Soto "No! He doesn't swing at enough balls!" LMAO
