Question #168

9 different players have struck out 200+ times in a season....those 9 have totaled 13x over 200 K.......8 of those players averaged 37 HR during their 200 K years. Name the 1 player who had over 200 strikeouts but only 15 HR that season.

The only player i can think of that stuck out a ton but wasn't a masher is Drew Stubbs.
I say Drew Stubbs

It’s him...the golden child of Dusty Baker 

Yoan Moncada of White Sox also had a 17 HR 200 k season.....take away those two and avg #HR during 200 K season is 39!

I was so flippin' mad when Cleveland traded Shin-soo-Choo and got Stubbs in return.

It was a trade for Bauer. And it was great.

Oh yeah Bauer was a part of that trade. I forgot it was a three team trade. I was mostly comparing bats. Bauer worked out well.

Yeah I remember Bauer was a semi-unknown. When the trade happened, it seemed bad. I read up in Bauer and was immediately flipped and though we fleeced another team. Mostly because he was such a high pick and thought of prospect, just Arizona wasn’t willing to let him be himself in terms of preparation. I figured if Tribe was, we had a potential Ace. He honestly never became as good as I was hoping, but with Kluber he wasn’t needed quite as much.

Nopes...Bench was close

Bench close and he had by rough math 295. So someone around 300.
