Can anyone point me to a successful major league hitter who had strikeout rates similar to Carson's in the minors? Not trying to be snarky, I just genuinely can't think of anyone.

Oh yeah de la Cruz was pretty close, Williams is slightly worse at 31.4%. Big difference is Williams is a .249 career hitter in the minors and de la Cruz batted around .300 most years.

Feel like that's the profile of a guy who's likely not going to hit at all in the majors, but he does have enough power that he wouldn't need to hit much.

His defense is legit and has a cannon to. He already has 16 stolen bases and 15 homers to boot

I'll believe it when I see it. You wouldn't telegraph your intentions anyways since you lose negotiating power when you do.

It would be dumb to sit on Murphy with so many contenders in need of an upgrade at catcher and with Murphy getting hot.
