I dont know if anyone has mentioned this before, but naps babip was .367 this year, which was good for seventh in the league. In recent years, his BABIP has swung up and down rapidly from season to season. In 2012, although it was a shortened season for him, he had a very similar strike out percentage to this year, yet his babip was down around 90 points, which resulted in a batting average 32 points lower.
