Differences to me
1)Jackson season was closer to an even split between A+\AA. Davis has been mostly at AA.
2) AA is the first time Davis K% has been above 20% in professional ball. The little bit I’ve heard is Davis doesn’t have a whole on the swing, but South Bend and AA his issue is more with picking up spin. Prospect guys don’t think it’ll be an issue in the future.
3) Davis’s league adjusted stats are better
4) fastball velocity is up 1.5 mph and breaking balls are better. Teams have moved from sinker guys to 4 seamers. Teams are developing relievers earlier as well.
