Khris Davis Looks To Continue Mashing Out In The Bay
7 years agoKhris “Krush” Davis continued his success that made him one of the majors’ premier sluggers during his first season in Oakland in 2016. 2017 was almost a carbon copy of what 2016 with the exception of the fact Davis almost doubled his walk total which saw a 30-point rise in his On-Base percentage. Entering his 3rd season in the bay area, at 30 years old you know what you’re getting with a player like Khris Davis. If he is in the lineup for 150 games like he has been so far in both seasons with Oakland, Davis will get you close to if not over 40 Home-Runs and 100 RBI. The batting average is going to be between .240 and .250 but a place where you may see some improvement is in his walk totals. With the emergence of Matt Olson, the acquisition of Stephen Piscotty and a plethora of young players for Oakland, there is more players to do damage in the lineup which could result in a more selective approach from Davis in 2018.
