So the 57 PA partial season Erik Kratz, who has the second lowest RC/27 of any player in 2016 (the lowest is the combined season Erik Kratz), also happens to be the highest priced player in terms of $/PA.
I've been saying for years that there's something screwy with the way WIS prices low PA catchers with A+ arms. This should really be fixed.
Agree. Just to put this in a context solely limited to 2016 catchers, I compared Kratz's partial season of 57 PAs to Evan Gattis. Gattis had 499 PAs, 32 bombs and an .809 OPS#. His CS% is 0.46. At $6549 per plate appearance, he appears to be a pretty good value. Kratz on the other hand costs $17,481 per PA and has a 0.47 CS%. It's just,, pardon me here, "crazy".
