Injury concerns hold harris back
Injury concerns hold up Harris as a third outfielder
After two seasons as a third outfielder, Matt Holliday’s performance as a left fielder was somewhat disappointing. The left fielder made his second career All-Star appearance last August, and had two strong seasons, finishing tied for the National League lead in home runs 바카라사이트with seven. But Holliday is hitting.219, which has resulted in an average of just.205. Holliday, who turned 36 on Oct. 30, has spent his career at right field, and while he’s not sure about his defensive ability at the position, it’s probably time for him to learn about that outside the box.
For his part, Harper hasn’t been having a great season offensively. He’s hitting.248/.319/.383 with 11 home runs, 50 RBIs and 35 doubl바카라사이트es. He has been hitting only.230/.306/.366 in May, which translates to just 0.98 wRC+ ove더킹카지노r the past month.
What could go wrong? It wasn’t all bad news for Harper at the end of May, as he had a hot August, batting.324 with 10 home runs, 34 RBIs and 26 doubles. After finishing with 13 homers and 42 RBIs, his plate discipline has gotten more spotty, which might lead to his regression.
But, even in his rough patch, Harper should still find his way to the Majors. He’s shown glimpses of his old swagger throughout his career, and he could make for an elite bat in the third base position with a couple years of solid hitting, in which case he should bounce back in 2013.
