Vasquez had a very tough time at the plate last year. He wasn't happy about that AS A PROFESSIONAL and took it upon himself to be better. Early results haven't been there, but the underlying metrics say his PROCESS has improved. I believe he will have a nice year at the plate.
At this point, right here, right now, his offensive results have been poor. At the end of the season, RESULTS matter. But when looking ahead, PROCESS matters. And everything points to Vasquez's new process as being very good. I would rather he be where he is now, than hitting .400 with terrible underlying metrics. It's a long season.
