Ryan Howard has been an overachieving marginal prospect from the beginning. He's stayed mainly at SS longer than most analysts predicted and he hit better....until 2019. Most of his season was a repeat of AA with a huge regression. One clue as to way may be in the groundball ratios. They were easily the lowest of he pro career and may be the result of trying to implement swing changes advocated by statistically oriented coaches. Maybe his numbers rebound after a winter of reflection and practice or maybe he reverts to an old swing. 2020 is likely a make or break season for him.
