LAD July offense stat update

Phil Gurnee ♦ July 12, 2017 ♦ 1 Comment

Some surprises here for me.

I thought Puig was doing better in July than he is.

Corey Seager is hitting but his walk/k rate is strange for him. Thirteen strikeouts in only 32 plate appearances with only two walks. That is not the Seager we know.

Kiké Hernandez has been terrible in July.  I’m truly surprised to see this. I guess when you win just about every game you don’t notice failure as much.

Other notes:

Cody was bolstered by his big day on Sunday, otherwise, his July would not look good for an everyday cleanup hitter.

Justin Turner is a monster

Looks like it is time to let Chase sit a bit more and get Logan more starts.

The Grandal/Barnes combo might be the best the Dodgers have ever had. Will need to do some research on this but having a hard time remembering both the starting catcher and backup catcher being this good. Yeager and Fergy were a great combo but that was because was a defensive whiz and the other was an offensive force.

Nice to see Chris Taylor bouncing back strong in July, though one walk has to be concerning.

Joc be banging, and he’s not whiffing. A new type of Joc? Of course, this is not just SSS but SSSS.
