Nolan Arenado Homers In Third-Straight Game
4 years agoSt. Louis Cardinals third baseman Nolan Arenado was all over San Diego Padres pitching this weekend. He homered in each game of the three-game series, going 6-for-12 overall. Unfortunately, he was one of the only offensive bright spots for the team as the Padres swept the series. Arenado has had a fantastic month of May, slashing .379/.429/.759 with five home runs, five doubles, 13 RBI and 13 runs. He's struck out just three times over 63 plate appearances while walking five times. His current 9.4% barrel rate is the highest it's ever been in the Statcast era. All signs point toward an elite fantasy season for Arenado in his first year outside Coors.
