Kevin McGonigle Could Take Home Much More Than the AL ROY Thanks to Analytics

The 21-year-old has already established himself as the clear favorite to win the AL Rookie of the Year. Yet when the traditional statistics are put aside for a moment and the deeper numbers are examined, a much more intriguing possibility, and discussion emerges.

Suarez to the Blue Jays or Red Sox

Eugenio Suárez Waived: Could the Blue Jays or Red Sox Acquire the Reds Slugger?

Still hitting titanic sized home runs at a clip that projects 2026 to be a fairly normal year for him, the two time All Star and 13 year MLB veteran will probably finish with close to 30 home runs, 80 RBI, a ton of strikeouts, and reliable third base play when he is not the designated hitter.

Braxton Ashcraft's Strikeout Line Is Priced Wrong at Petco Park

DataStreak puts Ashcraft at a 95% hit rate on strikeouts, and the market's 5.5 line at +119 is a genuine pricing gap against his 20-start data.

In terms of sentiment, it is far too early to reflect on Vlad's career and acknowledge this All Star Game starting nod as his swan song segue into the annals of Cooperstown.

Despite what many considered a sluggish start by his standards, Soto already sits with 10 home runs and a typically elite .949 OPS. After a cold April and a lack of power early in MLB’s newly adjusted March schedule, the numbers are starting to normalize in a big way.
