Juan Soto Slashing .290/.429/.532 In June
3 years agoWashington Nationals outfielder Juan Soto has turned things up a notch in June after a disappointing first two months of the year. Over 19 games this month, Soto is slashing .290/.429/.532 with four home runs, 13 RBI and 13 runs. He entered the month with a .270/.395/.387 slash line and only four home runs over 40 games. While Soto's season-long numbers aren't overly impressive on the surface, all of his underlying stats suggest that elite production should be coming soon. He ranks in the 98th percentile in xwOBA (.422), the 97th percentile in xBA (.311) and the 94th percentile in hard-hit rate (53.4%). A dominant second half to the 2021 season should be coming for Soto.
