Breakdown Jake McCarthy

    Overview

  • Experts rank this player at 87th among OF's. Based on his stats from the past 60 days, he is currently ranked 122nd.
  • The current leader among OF's is Kyle Tucker
  • He should be doing much better than this. You might be able to him now for a discount.
  • 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

  • Ranked 399th in BABIP (Batting Average on Balls In Play) with 0.083
  • Ranked 399th in batting average with 0.073
  • Not overly impressive with on base percentage currently ranked 393rd with 0.170
  • Not too impressive with slugging percentage currently ranked 400th with 0.098
  • Not too impressive with on base plus slugging currently ranked 398th with 0.268
  • Not very impressive in steals and is currently ranked 569th with 1
  • Not too impressive and is currently ranked 409th in RBI with 3
  • Not too impressive and is currently ranked 463rd in runs scored with 2
  • His average points in the past two weeks have remained fairly consistant and rose slightly by 0.2 PPG.
  • At this point in the season his numbers compared to last years: AVG: -0.242, OBP: -0.175, HRs: EVEN, RBI: -3, Runs: -6, Wlks: +1, Stls: -1,
  • The season is still young, expect things to change quite a bit.
Breakdown Chandler Simpson

    Overview

  • Experts rank this player at 61st among SS's. Based on his stats from the past 60 days, he is currently ranked 35th.
  • The current leader among SS's is Bobby Witt Jr.
  • He is doing much better than most people thought he would. Can he keep this up?
  • 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

  • Top 35 in BABIP (Batting Average on Balls In Play) with 0.400 and is currently ranked 33rd
  • Top 50 in batting average with 0.316 and is currently ranked 44th
  • Not overly impressive with on base percentage currently ranked 111th with 0.350
  • Not too impressive with slugging percentage currently ranked 203rd with 0.368
  • Not too impressive with on base plus slugging currently ranked 167th with 0.718
  • Not very impressive in steals and is currently ranked 298th with 2
  • Not too impressive and is currently ranked 426th in RBI with 2
  • Not too impressive and is currently ranked 441st in runs scored with 3
  • 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: +0.316, OBP: +0.35, HRs: EVEN, RBI: +2, Runs: +3, Wlks: +1, Stls: +2,
  • The season is still young, expect things to change quite a bit.
