Breakdown Matt McLain

    Overview

  • Experts rank this player at 38th among SS's. Based on his stats from the past 60 days, he is currently ranked 94th.
  • The current leader among SS's is Mookie Betts
  • He is doing dreadful lately. If he is star player then he should rebound.
  • He hasn't missed that many games lately, but he is listed on the injury report. He may have some nagging injuries with his Shoulder (Since Mar 20, 2024). Look at his player news.
  • Trending Batting Stats

  • Top 50 in BABIP (Batting Average on Balls In Play) with 0.357 and is currently ranked 47th
  • Ranked 114th in batting average with 0.269
  • Not overly impressive with on base percentage currently ranked 133rd with 0.342
  • Top 100 in slugging percentage and is currently ranked 97th with 0.467
  • Top 100 in on base plus slugging and is currently ranked 98th with 0.809

  • Not too impressive and is currently ranked 351st in RBI with 22
  • Not too impressive and is currently ranked 294th in runs scored with 31
  • 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.
  • His average points in the past two weeks have increased by 1.6 PPG.
  • At this point in the season his numbers compared to last years: AVG: -0.291, OBP: -0.358, HRs: -16, RBI: -50, Runs: -65, Wlks: -31, Stls: -14,
  • The season is still young, expect things to change quite a bit.
Breakdown Matt Mervis

    Overview

  • Experts don't even rank him among 1B's. Based on his stats from the past 60 days, he is currently ranked 62nd.
  • 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

  • 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: -0.167, OBP: -0.242, HRs: -3, RBI: -11, Runs: -8, Wlks: -8, Stls: EVEN,
