Young Hitters to Target & Why the Stabilization Point for Barrel Rate Feels Slippery

Rates & Barrels: A show about Baseball

Eno and DVR discuss why Esteury Ruiz might have a difficult time becoming Jon Berti 2.0 despite blazing speed and a growing path to playing time with the Padres, before examining several young hitters whose underlying skills point to future success, and why the stabilization point of a hitter's barrel rate still messes with our minds.
