I never understood why many of the really good hitters have sub par vision.
Schwarber was lauded for having a very good eye and yet SDS gives him 45 vision or something.
Strikeout rate and whiff rate plays a large part of the vision attribute.
Aaron Judge? Baseball Savant shows Judge being in the 13 percentile in strikeout rate! They also have him in the 3 percentile in whiff rate as well. This is the reason why he has low vision!
Kyle Schwarber? Baseball Savant has him in the 14 percentile in strikeout rate and in the 8 percentile for whiff rate. So, yeah, he has low vision as well!
Ok, Trout is a great hittet, Ohtani is a great hitter. Both have average vision at best.
This is debatable to me. Based on strikeouts or whiff rate I would agree. However, Trout has and has historically had one of the best barrel percentages in baseball and a low chase rate. He also walks a lot. Those seem relevant to the concept of "vision".
The thing I find interesting is that these cards often limit vision for Trout, Judge and others, but when it comes to power stats they seem to be more forgiving.
