Cabrera went into a time machine for one game. Nice to see.

 

[Rebbiv]

Cabrera leads team in HRs, RBIs and BBs. His AB/HR is his 2nd best rate since 2013 (2016 was better). His ISOP (Isolated Power) is the best since 2016. Is he the same as 2016 or even 2013? No.

leading this team in any offensive stat isn't anything to brag about.

leading this team in any offensive stat isn't anything to brag about.

Especially with small samples.

 

[gotime909]

Paredes 9 game hitting streak. Hitting .379 in that span. Very nice to see him bounce back from a brutal stretch.

 

[tomdalton22]

Mize and Skubal have been terrible. Hopefully this will be a learning experience and they will be better for it.
