I think some people are taking missing bats to an extreme religion these days. It's been proven that you can be successful without striking guys out at a prodigious pace. All things being equal, I like guys that miss bats too. But I also like guys that keep the ball down.
Hoover both misses bats and has shown to be quite capable in high pressure situations.

I'll take that.
