Wacha has the best infield pop-up rate in the majors, and remember, those plays are guaranteed outs — as good as a strikeout. It’s a good thing he gets those because his strikeout rate has been in decline for two years. If the Royals fall out of the playoff race — they’re a 18.2% chance to make the playoffs right now, per Fangraphs — Wacha would be a good depth add for a contender.
