Very reasonable to think they will be better end of the year.
Bobby has a .378 bapip lol
I have begun to sour a bit on bapip though to try to weed out flukey starts or lack thereof because some guys just always have a high bapip...like Alex Gordon.

There's so much that goes into BABIP.
How much contact do you make?
How hard is that contact. on average?
Are you fast enough to beat out a lot of IF grounders?
Are you hitting lots of line drives?
If you can run like the wind, you hit the ball hard (and consistently hit it hard), you control the strike zone, and you hit a lot of line drives, like Bobby Witt, BABIP is generally going to be higher than average.
