Yeah, I was thinking a lot of the best hitters in mlb strike out a ton (these days). Trout / ohtani came to mind, for example.

25 % is pretty much the norm these days.

That’s just not the truth. He’s 24 and a top 10-15 player in the league his first 2 seasons and plays above average defense in CF. Sure he’s had his struggles this year, but that’s just crap to call him a B level player.
He strikes out way 2 much for a player like that. Name a guy who is great who strikes out way too much for the great hitter he is? Julio is good just think he is over hyped. Again really hope I am wrong!
STFU and quit taking it if your ass. Mike Trout had a higher K % than Julio the last 2 seasons for fuck sake. Again, he started poorly this season, but it’s been about 23 fucking games
I think he is a good player and can be a great player but presently not a clutch player. Always swing out of his shoes in the clutch moments instead of think base hit

He’s not “b level” though maybe A- with the guys Seth listed being A+

Trout led the league in strikeouts 2014, though he's cut down a lot since then which is interesting

Gonna be one of those game 1 run and tons of runners stranded in scoring position. Batters SO instead of doing their job of ball in play

Welp game not going our way. Classic leaving runner on 3rd with 1 out. Alright Julio might be an A but he has gotta get there. Not there yet. His defense is iffy and his swing is off. He will grow into it more though.

Yep exactly. This lineup was lucky enough to get 1 or even base runners.
