Are MLB’s Top Hitters Struggling or Sabotaged? The Shocking Truth Behind Their Slow Starts Revealed!
Henderson is usually a Statcast darling for how frequently he crushes the ball at launch angles that would create homers and other extra-base hits, but this year he’s barreling the ball less in part because he’s just not hitting the ball at the optimal angle. His at-bats per home run (34.7) and RBI (20.8) are career lows, and his 27.4 swing-and-miss percentage is a career high.
His defense, which has graded well in the past despite a Correa-like 220-pound frame, has also been subpar. Both Outs Above Average and Defensive Runs Saved say Henderson has cost Baltimore runs in the field.
