Strikeouts coming at an alarming rate for Báez … Plate discipline has never been a strength for Javier Báez (SS, CHC), but his ct% has plummeted to new depths in 2021. Through 235 PA in 2021, he has 15 HR and 9 SB, but it has come with a putrid .232 batting average and minuscule 59% ct%. Should fantasy owners be concerned?
