In response to "Contact isn't something they're looking for today. Power, launch angle and all that stuff is what they focus on. Guys that hit for average aren't " by Krusty

And the scouts and all are stupid.

You need a few of these guys to make up for the fact 25% of your at-bats come up empty because your hitter can’t make contact.

Your clean-up hitter having guys on base is better when he does make contact … there are very few teams who do well only via the home run.

Earl Weaver’s three run Homer required 2 guys on base.
