Agree. It is good to see him actually do this since we know he had at least the tools for mid-level power. He seems to be balancing his patience and aggressiveness which works because he knows the strike zone so well. And the popups seem to be decreasing also which was a previous issue he had.
Williams and Alfaro will always have more issues with the strike zone but at least they have good hit tools. Williams has really quick hands to the point where he can wait and use his power to the opposite field. The fact that he can do that means there is some hope he will learn the strike zone over time. On Alfaro, he swings and misses more often and has even less of an idea of the strike zone. But he also is able to barrel up balls that other players cannot. His raw power is still like a 65-70 tool and you can see that in some home runs he has hit off better prospects. His trouble is more against the junk ball pitchers.
Crawford's progression has been an interesting journey and it is nice to see him start to put all the tools together. He can be a really good major league player even if he only hits .250. Hopefully the Philly press will understand that.
