Springer's AA OPS was .895.
O'Neill's was .882
Just saying...
Springer's huge OPS in AAA was in a hitter's haven, as was his huge OPS in the CALL league.
Also...how can you tell that O'Neill isn't stalking pitches...or that Springer was? Their walk rate is nearly identical...
Always did love your analysis taro...I don't have the close level scouting on O'Neill so would welcome your further dissection of the two. By the numbers, they've had nearly identical AA careers. My gut instinct when looking at O'Neill's full minor league career is the same as yours...he feels like a big bust in the making. What say you?
