Your problem here is that, in your original post, you did not know that average CF OPS was .745. You thought the bar was much lower.
That explains the current detour to the mean, where 300, 400, 500, 600 PAs are inadequate to you and now you insist that 200 PAs is the way to go and you want to start eliminating players.
NL average is .739, without Trout. The difference is negligible. If you go back to the immediate seasons before Trout’s career, you will find similar range.
As to defense, it’s a non-issue. We’re on the same page. Almora’s latest defensive metrics probably don’t reflect his above average defense.
Let’s not obfuscate the point. Almora, in most recent two seasons, is nowhere near average offensively, has a significant way to go to get there, and the Cubs need to solve the CF problem and remains to be seen whether Almora is part of the solution.
