Bautista BABIP = .243
Tulo BABIP = .213
Encarnation BABIP = .273

Those are all below MLB average (obscenely so in the case of Tulo) and mostly outside the batters control... they can't make the fielders go where the ball isn't. The only one I'm concerned about is EE since he's walking significantly less then he used to and K'ing more. And I don't think anyone ought to lose their job over what basically amounts to a bad turn from the luck dragon.
We were passed bad luck two weeks ago. We are getting into "It is, what it is" territory. There's not a sign that this is simply bad luck anymore.
