It’s taken me awhile to even entertain this, but I think that Gleyber Torres may be figuring it out. I’ve been extremely hesitant to admit this for Torres, since his last 700 plate appearances or so have been wildly inconsistent in terms of both his swing mechanics and swing decisions. Because of that, it takes a lot to be convinced that the at-bats/hot streak are signs of a permanent improvement.
Torres’ slash line isn’t all that exciting. It sits at .222/.256/.417, which is actually near-league average production. It’s enough to make one think, “Well, how hot can he be if his numbers still look like that?
