The low averages do not bother me as much as all these strikeouts. Seems like players are instructed to swing too often these days.

While JJ may be on to something as the current MLB batting average (.2504) if taken for a whole season is at the lowest level since the introduction of the DH in 1973.
That being said the .2504 avg isn't that much lower than the average league average (each season being treating equally, i.e. not weighted by AB's) over this same period (.2615).
Though he may miss the hits per game. In 1999 when MLB hit its best (.2712) over this period there were 17.357 hits in each game. This year it's down to 17.121.
JJ must be awful sensitive to miss the 0.236 hits per game more in the "glory year".

if it didn't ruin all the historical stats they could just make the ball a tiny bit larger
but it does ruin them, so they won't

"Bases loaded no outs/Runner on 3rd with less than 2 outs - no score" is typical now.
Today's Grand Salami is high, though: 127.5

Even though like most of JJ's posts where the claims in the headline are hugely exaggerated (or nonsense) there may be a kernel of truth to his premise.
Currently of the 174 qualified batters 28 are hitting under .230. While 16.1% is hardly "most mlbs" it is a rather high number and would be the highest rate in the last 4 decades. One would expect that by players either reverting to the mean or by getting reduced playing time this number will become dramatically lower by the end of the year.
Looking at JJ's .230 mark in an historical context (using 1973 again and a minimum # of AB's of 300) the last two seasons have been among the worst for, or most tolerant of, sub .230 hitters at 13.5% and 12.0% for 2012 and 2013 respectively. Over this 41 year time span there are only 5 other seasons where greater than 10% of the league got hits at such a low rate.
