Ive already made my position known. He's hitting grounders with decent EV. His ceiling is non-2014-2015 Dee Gordon. Its still blatently obvious he needs more seasoning in the minors. But, no, I'm sure a .406 BABIP with no walks is totally sustainable
I know this thread has turned into taunting between detractors and supporters of Abrams, and you're responding in kind. But this opinion seems like climbing out on a branch that may not hold much weight.

It'll be really hard for CJ Abrams to perform well enough for baseball to look back years from now and say he was absolutely the linchpin of a worthy trade package for Juan Soto. He would need to be a multiple time All Star. If you want to guarantee he won't be that, I'm not going to definitively say you're wrong.

There's miles of distance between "multiple time All Star who was a good return for Juan Soto" and Dee Strange-Gordon.
