Mookie Betts & Marcus Semien Join Elite Group Of Players Better Than Average In HR%, SO%, BB%, SB%, XBT% And DP%

There are now 20 players in this group who have 5,000+ PAs since 1946. See Players better than average in HR%, SO%, BB%, SB%, XBT% and DP%. That was a post from last August.

Both Betts and Semien crossed 5,000 career PAs this year. So that increased this group from 18 to 20. Even with the addition of these two, only 7 of the players in this group of 20 are right handed batters  (which is what Semien and Betts are). There are 11 left handed batters and 2 switch hitters.

Here are the career stats compared to the MLB averages for Betts and Semien:
