ATM, that’s a decent analysis. I’m curious as to Burleson’s home run potential if would try to pull the ball more.
Yeah this is something I had pointed out in a gameday thread the other day. Burly does have a profile where he would hit more HRs if he pulled the ball more instead of splitting evenly on pull, center, and oppo. I don’t think he has to make a drastic change, but if he can focus on hitting more inside pitches and pulling them in the air he will find himself hitting more HRs. Isaac Paredes is a great example of how average raw power can turn into above average in game results if you pull the ball in the air.
