From all of the buzz about this guy, I just assumed he had better stats than what I just read.

Last year: .267 BA, 38 HR & 104 RBI
Career BA: .284

Pretty good numbers but then I read he has a 6 year, $84 million offer on the table from the Astros but is looking for 7 years and $105 million from the Yankees. Man that's a lot of dough.

I guess the market correction is over.

I wish I could get crockpot over to this thread because he ran numbers on it last year, but a typical MLB regular gets 30% hits of balls put into play. Guys like Ichiro and Manny have 33-34% consistently. Beltran initially in Houston last yearwas at 20%. Crock's analysis with a normal H% was something like a .315 BA with a ridiculous amount of count stats.

if I read your post correctly, you say 33-34% of Ichiros balls in play go for hits, is that right? IIRC, last year, Ichiro had an absurdly high %, something like 60%+.

During his hot streaks he was in the 45%+ range

Ichiro?

Dang, if I could find the article on BP I would. I honestly can't remember what the number was. What, what, what, what it was was his BA for all balls in play that weren't HR's, HBP, and I think sacrifices, so clearly we are talking about different things, my bad. Anyways, in case you are curious. Ichiro was in the top 10 for balls hit into play, but he was also in the top 10 for BA with balls in play that weren't yada yada.
