My Great Hope player - Joshua Baez, has really cooled off but the one thing I've noticed in his ABs is good plate recognition. He's now 23.6% K-rate (right at league average) but 13.2% BB rate - above league average of 10.2% and improving. He had much worse rates in prior years (35.5% K-rate last year and 9.9% BB-rate).
He's also playing a solid CF when he's there. I hope they stick with him in CF and Davis in RF.
He's also stealing 2b almost every time he's on with no one in front of him.
