He cracks the top 20 in OPS which just goes to show the amazing April’s the LAD have had. I can still remember the crazy month that Ron Cey. Yutes should be able to remember Rafy Furcal in 2008 and the great starts that Matt Kemp got when he was at the top of his game.  Matt Kemp is on the top 25 three times.
