Christopher Morel has hit nine home runs in 12 games so far this season. He's striking out more than 30% of the time, only one player who had minimum 300 played appearances last year with a strikeout rate as high as Morel's right now.

It might be worth it just to see how it plays out, knowing the odds are against it but you have a really nice prize if they do turn up.
