The problem with that scenario is that Francisco would leave so many extra at bats for those behind him in the order to score runs that the overall issue would not be close at the end of the day. Sure, he may have more RBI + runs, but he also kills RBI chances for the 5/6 and 7 guys by making so many outs.

As for him hitting the ball hard.... lots of guys do. BABIP still keeps them in check just like everyone else.
