Slightly off topic, but while we've had good luck with Babip, it seems we've had tough luck in pitching matchups. What I mean is were having to face every teams aces and not missing them. Nola 3 times, Scherzer twice, Syndegaard and DeGrom in this coming series which will make twice. Strasburg we missed once. Mets on the other hand have already missed Scherzer twice.
Who besides Swanson will see their BABIP dip significantly?
Freddie's will probably dip, but how much? He tends to carry a higher one.
I feel Acuna's will drop at least 100 points if not more

Speaking of Adonis Garcia, he now plays for the Twins. The LG Twins of the Korean Baseball Organization that is. Don't know what his BABIP is, but he's hitting .356 with a .932 OPS. But don't get too excited. Hyun Soo Kim is the team's stud and he absolutely fell on his face in two MLB stops (Orioles, Phillies) last season. He's cruising along with a Freddie Freeman-ish 1.042 OPS.

the phillies have a group of huge BABIP overperformers in Hoskins, Herrera, Hernandez, Alfaro. But also a lot of players dragging their number down in Santana (really bad), Crawford, Altherr. Still not overly impressed with them as a team. Maybe i'll be proven wrong.
nick williams had a .257 BABIP but always carried a really high one in the minors. how likely is he to carry that over to the majors and end up a good bit above .300?

You can even calculate it yourself if you know the player's hits, ab's, hr's and k's.
