Yeah. His o swing numbers are only marginally better than the last year, but his o swing contact rates are drastically better. He's staying on the ball better and fouling off sliders getting additional pitches rather than swinging over them.
I mean not all of his points are without merit, but to say he's the same hitter is wrong. He's likely not as good as his numbers show now, but he's more than likely an improved version of what he was last year.
