i won't go so far to say zero eye is good, but ~70-80+ kinda sucks at a slot in order you expect many rbi from.
Yeah, that's why I adjust all averages (batting, HRs) to Plate appearances. The adjusted figures show all that power on a guy is used slightly less as walks increase. But I wouldn't say that lower eye is preferred on these talented sluggers, but rather that eye on them offers less return on them than on other players.
