The Monthly walk LAD leaderboard
With Yasiel Puig taking walks this month more than he has ever done before, I decided to bring back the leaderboard for walks in a month. Of course, Jimmy Wynn is on top, that was his bread and butter. How about the rest of the group that has managed at least twenty-three walks in a …
