Greg Bird has surprisingly struggled in the batting average department this season but, in the sabermetrics department at least, with that being an obsolete state these days I don’t worry about that as much as most. As long as Bird keeps hitting bombs and his back remains healthy he can still be a suitable replacement for either Mark Teixeira in a few seasons or Garrett Jones in 2016. Again, ignore the batting average state here (that I expect to come back to Earth in a larger sample size) and check out his peripherals and power numbers, the kid is still going to be something special with numbers like these:
| Year | Lev | G | PA | R | H | 2B | 3B | HR | RBI | BB | SO | TB | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2015 | AA | 22 | 99 | 13 | 19 | 8 | 0 | 3 | 10 | 14 | 13 | .232 | .364 | .439 | .803 | 36 |
