Joey Gallo and Patrick Wisdom are the only two players who have struck out more frequently than Siri has since the start of the 2021 season. Those two players are free agents while Siri found himself on the Mets' roster after being traded shortly after the completion of the season. Siri has real baseball value because of his elite defensive abilities as well as his baserunning abilities. The challenge with the latter is Siri simply cannot reach base frequently enough because he swings early and often. His whiff rate on each pitch grouping was at least 38% and a 42% whiff rate on fastballs is practically unheard of these days for a regular player yet that is exactly what Siri did. He is a mistake hunter and can crush a misplaced fastball or a hanging breaking ball, but more often than not, he is essentially providing carbon credits with his empty swings in the continuing fight against human impact on climate change. The Mets will likely employ Siri in the 9th spot and allow him to roam centerfield to strengthen their overall defense, but the more frequently he plays, the more damage he provides to your batting average.
