Looked at others in the league, not much better. Most are hitting around .200.
Meanwhile, he's headed for a 16 HR season. 16. And he probably has the highest HR rating in the game, and one of the highest Contact. His Avoid K's is low for a Diamond League hitter at 91, but even my Pete Rose who has a 93 Avoid K's and a lower Contact rating has never hit less than .260 in Diamond.
If you're going to put ratings on cards and then the players don't perform as well as other players of similar ratings or worse, what's the point of ratings?

They are but you need to read them as a formula.
A player with 100 Contact/0 Power/100 Avoid K's will hit for an infinitely higher average than someone that is 100/100/100 in those 3 stats.
Contact is an amalgamation of BABIP + Power, not a straight rating. So Player A would have a super high BABIP score. Player B would be average. Given the same number of at bats, Player A would hit for a better average just because the BABIP score is much higher.
