With Chris Carter’s .283 AVG, 10 HRs, 22 RBIs, and a low 27.4% K rate (for Carter himself), it’s nice Milwaukee Brewers fans have a player to talk about more than, “he’s not yet ready for the big leagues, injured, dud, etc.” With many articles being written about how great of a start he’s had, just how realistic is that he’ll keep this going and not have a long cold streak?
First, Dan Szymborski and his ZiPS projections were quite positive for the 2016 season for Chris Carter as a 31 HR, 85 RBI season wouldn’t come as any surprise to him.
