Schneemann is a sell — the bat is short and not unlucky.

His expected wOBA is .292 with 286 plate appearances behind it — past the point where the number becomes reliable — and it sits .023 under the league average of .315. His actual wOBA is .272, tracking right with it, so there is no bad-luck story pulling the line down. This is the level he is at. The strikeout rate of 29.4% is stable and 7 points above league, and it has been climbing across the sample, which caps whatever floor he might otherwise have. He swings through 15.7% of pitches — well above the 11% league mark — and chases 33.4% of out-of-zone pitches, so more swings and misses are likely to follow. The contact quality is roughly league as well, so there is no quiet power signal to buy. Sell. A .000 AVG with 0 HR / 0 R / 0 RBI / 0 SB is pure waiver noise — streaming-only until the at-bats dry up entirely.
