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.
  • His average points in the past two weeks have remained fairly consistant and rose slightly by 0.3 PPG.
  • 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,
Breakdown Brian Anderson

    Overview

  • I couldn't find any stats of this player even playing a game in the past 60 days. This is most likely due to an injury or time in the minors.
