The RotoFeed :: Top 5 Second Basemen 25-Years Old or Younger

While he doesn’t bring speed to the table, the biggest question is if he can improve on his .249 average from 2013.  He was at .272 in the first half, though can he maintain a 26.9% line drive rate?  It fell to 18.0% in the second half, which is probably low in and of itself.  He should be able to post a 21-22% mark (22.5% overall), so he definitely should maintain a better BABIP (.287 in ’13).

The greater question may be his strikeouts, which rose from 21.7% in the first half to 25.2% in the second.  He was at 17.3% from 2011-2013 in the minors, so the first half number is probably closer to the truth.  While it’s hardly elite, you couple the improved strikeouts with the BABIP and he should be able to hit .270.
