Owen Caissie

data as of June 3, 2026·week 10

Caissie is a sell — skill below league, no luck excuse.

His expected wOBA is .281, well below the league average of .315, and at 162 plate appearances, that number is reliable. There is no bad-luck story here — no suppressed BABIP to blame. The fundamental problem is a strikeout rate of 41.4%, almost double the league average, and it has been climbing. He is averaging 91.6 mph off the bat with a 12.2% barrel rate, both above league, but those quality-of-contact gains are erased when nearly half his plate appearances end in a strikeout. His walk rate is also below league average, so he is not drawing enough free passes to offset the whiffs. The skill is what it is, and it is not enough. Sell.
