Also, Ender's BB rate is at a career high 8.1% and his K rate is 13.6% (it was 13.1% last year). So, Ender is walking a little more and striking out at essentially the same rate as last year.
His hard hit ball% is also at a career high 26%.
With Ender's BABIP at about 60 points below his career average, and no real alarming trends in his other stats, it's safe to say he's been pretty unlucky. He's due to improve in a big way in the second half.
