It has been a tough year for Patrick Bailey at the plate. He is slashing just .202/.267/.298 (61 wRC+) in 246 plate appearances this season. However, the struggling SF Giants hitter looks to be slowly turning the corner at the plate.
Struggling SF Giants bat slowly, but surely, trending in the right direction at the plate
Anything Bailey offers with the bat is a bonus. Despite struggling mightily offensively, he has still put up 1.8 fWAR this season and is on pace to surpass 3.0 fWAR for the year.
That is not a bad mark at all, especially at a key position like catcher.
