I wonder how much of the early strikeouts are due to random bad luck, how much is due to the hitters adjusting to Jeff Albert, and how much is due to bad approach/contact skills? For example, I would expect Carpenter and Goldschmidt to improve due to their track record, but Ozuna might not (or take much longer to do so) if he is injured. Guys like Bader and DeJong have always struggled with strikeouts, so they may not improve much. On the other hand, they are still young so maybe they will? I think it’s still too early to overreact but it’s definitely something to monitor.
