The link above for those interested in MLB exit velocity.

Obviously the average velocity (EV) will change as the season progresses.  Higher numbers likely to go done, lower numbers could improve.

That is a very interesting link, thank you.

I'm particularly fascinated by Billy Hamilton.

2017 Max EV = 97.3

2017 Avg EV = 79.4

They only have data for 2015-2017, but during that time his average EV has not been over 83 yet his OBP is roughly .300...he's getting the job done without the high EV.
