Christian Moore unconcerned with low spring average

by Bruno Mulé | Angels Correspondent | Fri, Mar 13th 11:10am EDT

Moore's exit velocity sits at 96 mph this spring — 11th-highest in the majors and well above the 89 mph he posted in the big leagues last season — and his strikeout rate has dropped from 33.7 percent to 22.5 percent. The results haven't followed yet, with Moore hitting just .189, but he's competing for the Angels' starting second base job against Adam Frazier. (Jeff Fletcher)

Fantasy Impact:

Moore doesn't appear concerned about the lack of hits: "Whether it falls or not, I'm not really worried about that right now. I just want to make sure I'm making consistent contact every day and making sure I'm at least catching one barrel a day, and a legit barrel. That's kind of where my focus has been and it's been good so far."
