Swing path and decision map
Corbin Carroll's tools (90) outpace production (85) by 5 points. Primary finding: excellent plate discipline but too passive on hittable pitches — letting strikes go by.

Running hot. Expect some cooling.
Carroll’s wOBA sits at 0.366, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.343 — a gap of 0.023, -0.9 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 609 PA. The results have outrun the underlying process; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to drift back toward the deserved level.
