Quote:According to MLBfarm.com (K rate):
2014 Smokies (AA): 15.2%
2014 Cubs (A+): 11.9%
2013 Cougars (A): 11.0%
He didn't play his entire 2014 season in Tennessee
I hardly consider 3% as sky rocketed. That is 3 extra K's per 100 AB's. So, he was striking out 12 times per 100 in A+ and 15 per 100 in AA, not really something I would find concerning.
