FACTS/FLUKES: J. Báez, P. López, Winker, M. Kelly, and I. Happ

Báez's plate skills hurt profile... As the 2020 Baseball Forecaster noted, "keeper league owners should watch those plate skills longer term" from Javier Báez (SS, CHC). Unfortunately for those that rostered Báez, his early plate skills have taken a tumble, as he has posted a 64% ct% during the first month of the 2020 season. Through 96 at-bats, he is hitting .198 with 3 HR, 10 RBI, 11 R, and 1 SB. How do his skills look behind the slow start?
