Jake Burger Continues Power Surge
3 months agoMiami Marlins corner infielder Jake Burger continued his hot hitting on Tuesday versus the division-rival Philadelphia Phillies. Burger went 1-for-4 on the night with a walk and a solo home run. Despite getting off to a slow start and being hurt with injuries in the first half of the season, the slugger has been on an insane tear of late. Over the last month, Burger is hitting .330 with 13 homers and 19 RBI in 91 at-bats. Burger's Statcast profile backs up his power surge, as he has been hitting and barreling balls thrown to him at a very high rate. Although he will likely cool off at some point, the power is legit and should remain. Burger has given patient fantasy managers every reason to be happy and has become a must-start with his recent hot streak.
