Breakdown Matt Carpenter

    Overview

  • Experts don't even rank him among DH's. Based on his stats from the past 60 days, he is currently ranked 13th.
  • The current leader among DH's is Shohei Ohtani
  • He hasn't missed that many games lately, but he is listed on the injury report. He may have some nagging injuries with his Oblique (Since Apr 2, 2024). Look at his player news.
  • Trending Batting Stats

  • Ranked 491st in BABIP (Batting Average on Balls In Play) with 0.229

  • His average points in the past two weeks have remained fairly consistant and rose slightly by 0.9 PPG.
  • At this point in the season his numbers compared to last years: AVG: +0.124, OBP: -0.022, HRs: -5, RBI: -31, Runs: -17, Wlks: -41, Stls: -1,
