Could Javy Báez Hit Left-Handed at MLB Level?

There may be nothing Javy Báez can’t do. Seriously, would you be surprised if I told you he was a master yo-yo champion and could identify paleolithic bird species by their fossilized beaks? How about if I shared a story of him defeating Chuck Norris in a staring contest?

He’s an anomaly and an enigma all wrapped up into one person, if indeed he’s actually human at all. We all know El Mago is a magician on the diamond and his mastery of baseball knows no bounds, which of course means the naturally left-hand-dominant Báez can hit left-handed.
