Dodgers game 3: wake up braves!

Harris' numbers are kind of strange. His walk rate is way up, his K rate is down, his launch angle has improved, he's hitting the ball hard at approximately the same rate, he's hitting fewer grounders, his EV is down a bit but it's not a huge difference. He's not suddenly forgotten how to hit.

His BABIP is an insanely low .197 so he's been criminally unlucky.

In some ways, Harris might be a better hitter this year than last but the results just haven't been there yet.

It is really odd.
 
Seems to be swinging at a lot of third strikes not close to the strike zone. He is even able to put some of them in play with weak contact, contributing to the low BABIP.
 
Neve thought I’d be saying this, but thank GOODNESS we got Bryce Elder going.
He’s gonna mow freeman and crew down like dried hay.

And, Ozuna bombs incoming - to go along with Ozzie and Acuna bombs.
 
Don't know how long Elder will continue doing this, but he's been fun to watch pitch and problem solve the last two months.
