I think, anyway, that this is because of their low avoid K's...and the power K pitchers at the high levels, not because of their high slug. Make sense? They strike out more often, and they are facing Randy Johnson's and Dwight Gooden's, Nolan Ryan's, the other guys that aren't ummm soooo commonly known as guys who could fool a slugger out his shoes.
