Count me as one who is not worried on iota about the whiff. For one, and as others have noticed, it’s trending in the right direction. But aside from that, I don’t believe it’s caused by a lack of pitch recognition or slow reflexes. He’s being over-aggressive with that “I can hit anything” mentality. As his approach refines further up the chain, I’m certain we will all reminisce fondly about Andrew Fischer’s whiff fest in High-A. It helps that he’s absolutely mashing when he does connect. ✌🏼
