His strikeout rate was unsightly (31.7 percent), but Taylor showed impressive pop, hitting 19 homers with a .216 ISO. The power doesn't seem to be a fluke, as Taylor's hard-hit rate increased from 31.7 percent to 34.0 percent while his fly ball rate jumped from 29.6 percent to 36.7 percent. With his swing-and-miss issues, he will be a batting-average risk for the foreseeable future, but Taylor seems like a solid bet to produce home run and steal numbers in the teens again this season. That said, with highly-rated prospect Victor Robles waiting in the wings, he won't have much wiggle room."},"fullName":"Michael Taylor","playerRater30DAY":-3.3,"playerRater15DAY":-2,"playerId":4697}
