Breakdown Matt Mervis

  • The current leader among 1B's is Josh Naylor
  • 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

  • At this point in the season his numbers compared to last years: AVG: -0.167, OBP: -0.242, HRs: -3, RBI: -11, Runs: -8, Wlks: -8, Stls: EVEN,
