Jansen is clearly better than McGuire even with an abysmal start to the season.

 

The talent levels between the two is so marginal that it would make sense to keep the LHB in McGuire.

He's been f***ed by the BABIP gods 3 seasons in a row

It's really not that marginal. Jansen is the better hitter and defender, and the splits difference isn't what you might think it is. Jansen has been much better against RHP than LHP in his career and McGuire literally cannot hit lefties.

At some point you just start to accept that he has a terrible batted ball profile. Very low true talent BABIP.

Meh, both can be true to some extent. Jansen hasn't shown he has above average hitting talent potential but he's also likely been unlucky in his career with the batted balls he has put into play. The projections still view him as just a tick below league average offensively.

 

His batted ball profile probably indicates he's more of a .250 xBABIP guy than the .223 he has in his career.

Sure but .190 BABIP is not sustainable for the worst batted ball profile. Lowest sustainable BABIP is in the .240-250 range.

I think that we've seen who McGuire and Jansen are. We can't keep making excuses for them and hold more talented players behind them. Time to move on from both of them this summer
