I'm not down on Heredia. I just want him to hurt the ball, some. I like the guy, but not as an everyday OF right now.
Aoki is the type of guy he might become. Minus his rookie season, Aoki has never been north of 32 XB hits. That was this season, btw. But Aoki hits .290 and walks 65 pts.
Even if you take a way Aoki's bashing rookie season, he's had an XB hit in 6.5% of his AB's. Heredia was at 4% in the bigs and about 5.5% overall this year. If he develops a bit more pop and hits .280 then he's a pretty good player. His eye really helps! A reminder, he had 1 AB in '14 and didn't play at all in '15.
