Gary Pettis Hitting Stats — Era-Normalized Analysis
Gary Pettis was a free swinger whose value came from contact quality rather than plate patience. The profile was built around an era-adjusted SLG+ of 81 (modest for the era), an AVG+ of 95 (below-average contact rate), elite walk discipline, and a strikeout rate that limited the offensive floor. The profile also carried a batting average that sat well below the league norm and a high strikeout rate without commensurate power to offset it.
