Sullivan is a sell — below-league skill with no bad-luck cover.

His expected wOBA is .288 against a league average of .315, and he has 210 plate appearances — past the point where that number becomes reliable. His actual wOBA of .308 sits nearly on top of the expected figure, so there is no charge of bad luck to file. The contact behind it is equally thin: 86.8 mph average exit velocity, a 32.9% hard-hit rate, and 4.3% barrels, each well under league and each on a sample that clears its threshold. His xwOBA has stepped down across the season rather than settling. He does make contact — 16.7% strikeouts and a 9.2% swing-and-miss rate — but the walks are below average and the chase rate is running hot. The bat plays below the level the surface line implies. Sell. 0 HR / 2 R / 3 RBI / 0 SB / .220 AVG is a deep-league streaming-only drag — sell and cut bait.
