Paredes lead the league in pitches per plate appearance last season and has consistently been pretty high on the list. I'm surprised people don't talk about it more. His profile makes him a perfect replacement of Bregman other than his defense.
From The Athletic by Chandler Rome Paredes saw 65 pitches across the 12 plate appearances he took against the Mets. He collected just one hit in the series — a single in Friday’s loss — but provided plate appearances that can be contagious for a lineup trying to reverse its tendencies. “He saw more pitches than what I did in half of last season,” utilityman Mauricio Dubón joked after Saturday’s series-clinching win. “Me and Peña were talking about it, he makes the pitcher work and it helps us a lot. That’s who he is.” “He’s a guy that can put 40 (home runs) in the (Crawford) Boxes, but at the same time he can take his walks. We’re grinding at-bats. We’re seeing pitches. I don’t know how many pitches I saw today, but I saw a career high probably.”
Very Good (4.01 p/pa). Paredes is better (4.30). Both guys are the best on the current team at seeing pitches.
Yea, that was a tough watch last night, I think we need to get on the road, we seem to suck at home anymore
