I'm willing to bet that
@AZ_ did read your entire post. He just ended the quote there to help make his point.
What he and I are both trying to say is that you're drawing false correlations between minor league numbers and major league production.
Yes, Naquin is owning AAA pitching right now to a much greater extent than Zimmer is, but that doesn't mean that Zimmer wouldn't do better against major league pitching. There is a long list of guys who destroyed AAA pitching, and never figured it out in the majors. So, just because somebody has superior AAA numbers doesn't mean they're more prepared to help the big league club. Naquin had his shot in the majors, and it revealed major holes in his game that will take time to correct. Zimmer's K% is on the high end, but he's shown no such holes.
A bit of an extreme example, but one that we will all recognize is Frankie Lindor. In each of his first two major league seasons he posted a higher OPS than he did during any minor league season. Now, I don't believe Zimmer is going to out hit his minor league numbers right from the start like Lindor did, but it's just another example of how those minor league numbers don't really mean much.
Nobody is saying that they think Zimmer should be called up right now, nor are we saying for sure that he's ready. I'm just saying that he's more than likely next in line for an opportunity in the outfield, and it would hardly be a mistake to call him up at some point this summer. We haven't rushed him, he played a full season in Lynchburg, another in Akron, and will likely be around 80-90 games in AAA by the time he'd be considered for a call up.
