There is some of that this year for sure.
I was looking at some of his stats and there are some underlying signs that things could turn around.
His Batting Average for Balls in play is .238, which is abnormally low. Last year that number for him was .308.
His contact percentage is consistent year over year (75.5% vs 75.6%), his balls in play percentage is up (30.6% vs 32.4%), his home run ratio is up (3.4% vs 2.9%) and his strikeout ratio is down (17.7% vs 16.9%)
So he still hasn't really lived up to the pre-debut hype, but there are some improvments in the underlying numbers for the 21 year old.
