Bryce Harper Slugging .687 In August
3 years agoPhiladelphia Phillies outfielder Bryce Harper has been mashing the ball most of the year, but he's been particularly hot at the plate in August. Over 20 games this month, he's slashing .269/.419/.687 with seven home runs, five doubles, 14 RBI and 17 runs. He has walked 17 times, while striking out 15 times. Harper is right in the thick of the National League MVP race right now. His season-long OPS of .972 ranks fourth in the majors and he ranks in the 99th percentile in xwOBA (.420) and in the 98th percentile in xSLG (.580). Expect for him to continue producing elite numbers down the stretch this year.
