The strikeout rates for the important guys at Wilmington are concerning. Key for those players’ development is becoming better at controlling the strike zone and cutting down Ks.
The overall offensive performances don’t concern me as much. That’s an extreme pitchers park in an extreme pitchers league.
Which makes what Isabel is doing there all the more impressive.
Even elite hitting prospects - Yordan Alvarez is one example if you want a non-Royals example - run into challenges in the Carolina League. Not all... but many.
Re: Singer, he has good overall numbers and is right at a K/IP. No real warning signs there. KC also has traditionally asked pitchers to deemphasize their best secondary pitch at A+ because of the jump in competition and the way the park favors pitchers. Not sure if they’re doing that with this crew or not yet.
