Breakdown Miguel Vargas

    Overview

  • Experts don't even rank him among 2B's. Based on his stats from the past 60 days, he is currently ranked 109th.
  • The current leader among 2B's is Ketel Marte
  • In the past two weeks he has had an awful lot of time off. Either he isn't an every day player or he is coming back from an injury of some sort. I suggest checking out his news page to get a closer look.
  • Trending Batting Stats

  • Not too impressive and is currently ranked 650th in runs scored with 2
  • On second thought, he hasn't played in quite enough games for me to calculate a reliable analysis for you. Expect his rating to evolve over the next few days.
  • At this point in the season his numbers compared to last years: AVG: -0.195, OBP: -0.304, HRs: -7, RBI: -32, Runs: -36, Wlks: -38, Stls: -3,
