Carroll is a buy — the contact is elite and climbing.

His hard-hit rate is up at 48.0% against a league average of 40.0%, and that number has been stepping up across the sample. He has 396 batted balls, far past the 50 it takes for contact quality to become reliable, so this is not a hot streak you have to squint at. His expected wOBA is .343, .028 above league average, and his actual wOBA of .345 sits right on top of it — no luck is doing the work here. He walks 11.3% of the time, above league, and his strikeout rate is league average. The skill is real and the sample supports it. Buy.
