One sign that a player is a superstar is when pitchers are scared to throw them strikes. The most famous example of this is Barry Bonds, who was even intentionally walked with the bases loaded. A couple of recent Nats have been pitched around aggressively in Bryce Harper and Juan Soto.
Despite being 22 and in his first full season, pitchers are already wary when James Wood comes to the plate. Since the start of the Dodgers series, Wood has four homers and eight RBI’s in just six games. In that time, he also has eight walks.
