I'd look at his numbers until mid-August (until he hit a wall), to see what his potential could be through an entire season. It's likely he adjusts and his patience starts turning into walks (as they did in the Royals system), as he was already seeing more pitches than anyone else on the offense.

He was .294/.341/.446 through August 22. Numbers nose-dived from there.
