There are a bunch of sabermetric fans that want to disagree because they HATE BA but you're right. Even his OPS wasn't anything special last year at .850 and that's with his walks boosting the hell out of it. No one is saying he probably doesn't have the best eye at the plate, but best hitter? No way. Not unless he you know, starts hitting better.
