Moose is at a 13% line drive rate, vs the league average of 20%. He's at 55% fly balls vs. 36% average. The rule:
A line drive produces 1.26 runs per out, while fly balls produce 0.13 runs per out and groundballs produce 0.05 runs per out.
Net: if he doesn't start hitting some of them out of the park, he's not going to create any value for us at the plate. Nobody needs a guy who hits lazy fly balls. I don't think I've seen many of his fly outs even reach the warning track. I'd bet he has an uppercut swing.
