Small victory lap time just cuz.
Didn& #39;t see a single soul talk about Jay Bruce this offseason. Wrote this back in May when the NL DH wasn& #39;t a sure thing but was looking inevitable.
He& #39;s not the bomb diggity, but he& #39;s a cheap source of some bomb diggities.

K-rate down significantly so far in 2020: 16.7% is the best he& #39;s done since 2009 AAA.
178 wRC+
.455 ISO
.250 BABIP in line with recent totals, suggesting he could keep it up. Maybe.

He& #39;s UNLOADING on breaking balls and also crushing fastballs. Last year he was a terrible breaking ball hitter.
Chase% and Swing% down from last year, indicating more patience. Hence the dip in K-rate.
2019 Bruce was a great bargain. 2020 Bruce doing it again.
