Re: Joey Gallo's historic K-rate and BABiP
And that could change. Example? On the Defensive side, Nolan Arenado was said to be a defensive liability - even as he was moving from AA to AAA. Now he's putting on another showcase as he looks to take his 3rd consecutive Gold Glove at 3rd base.
I personally think you're making too much out of nothing. When he has a season or two under his belt, then is the time to start analyzing his numbers.

Beyond that, isn't the entire point of prospects to be amazed by small sample sizes? Gallo's numbers (on both ends) are unprecedented. The closest comparison appears to be Giancarlo Stanton.
Comparisons of small sample sizes:
MiLB K% and AB/HR rates
Joey Gallo (2012-2014/2015 so far; age 18-20/21): .406/.406 & 10.15/10.42
Giancarlo Stanton (2007-2010; age 17-20): .310 & 13.43
Adam Dunn (1998-2001; age 18-21): .224 & 19.17
Bryce Harper (2010-2011; age 17-18): .232 & 23.44
Kris Bryant (2013-2014; age 21-22): .318 & 4.37
Anthony Rizzo (2007-2012; age 17-22): .230 & 19.46
Corey Seager (2012-2015; age 18-21): .219 & 23.60
Miguel Cabrera (2000-2003; age 17-20): .187 & 51.41
Chris Davis (2006-2011; age 20-25): .272 & 15.31
Ryan Howard (2001-2005; age 21-25): .316 & 16.79
Gallo has age both on his side and working against him. If he's able to work on his recognition on breaking balls, he could turn out to be an even more powerful version of Stanton. However, he's also a year older than Stanton was at the same level (second time through AA), producing similar numbers.
Gallo can be great, but historically high K-rates have been 100 points lower than his K-rates to this point. That's a huge chasm to overcome.

I realize no one cares, but Gallo's K-rate now exceeds his SLG at the MLB level.
21 G

Gallo was sent down today when Josh Hamilton was activated.
