Your correlations sound fascinating. Anything jumping out to you, aside from the backwards Ks? Seeing Broxton and Santana listed alongside those other names is enough to quicken my pulse.

I’ve been looking for correlations in ball-inplay-stats [BABIP, ISO, LD%, IP%, GB/FB%, HR/FB%, GO/AO%] and swing-stats [Swung at %, Sw. Str.%, SO%, Look. SO%, 1st Str%, BBs] for the top 12 X-vel sluggers in ’16 [left out A Judge]. N Cruz, Stanton, Broxton, Holliday, Cabrera, Ortiz and G Sanchez are the top 7 in order and D Santana is 12th. I think you see the same immense potential in Broxton and Santana if a non-mechanical approach correction is made. Stop taking strike 3. Both players probably look for hard stuff and take curves and changeups consistently. Learn to look for and hit off-speed pitches with 2 strikes.
