Suárez is a sell — below-league skill, no luck to blame

His expected wOBA is .290, .025 below the league average, and he has 447 plate appearances — well past the point where that number becomes reliable. His actual wOBA is .317, so the surface is running ahead of the skill; he is not being dragged down by bad luck. The trajectory makes it worse: his expected wOBA has been stepping down across the sample while his strikeout rate has been stepping up. He is striking out 34.5% of the time, more than 12 points above league average, and that number is stable, which puts a hard cap on his floor. His barrel rate is above league at 11.3%, and that is the one thing pointing the other way, but it does not offset the rest. The line looks passable. The skill is not. Sell. 1 HR / 4 R / 4 RBI / .184 AVG rest of season makes him a drop — waiver-wire fodder, streaming-only at best.
