Foscue is a buy — the contact is real, the average will give some back

His hard-hit rate has stepped up across the sample, and he has the batted balls for it to count: 42.2% against a league average of 40.0%, over 147 batted balls. The xwOBA has climbed with it, now .333 against a league average of .315, and 218 plate appearances clears the mark where that number becomes reliable. So the production is earned, not a hot streak. What is not earned yet is the .361 actual wOBA — his BABIP is .316, above the league average of .295, and BABIP needs around 800 balls in play to be trustworthy. He has 147. Some of that batting average is coming back. The skill underneath stays.
