Breakdown Matt McLain

    Overview

  • Experts rank this player at 12th among SS's. Based on his stats from the past 60 days, he is currently ranked 7th.
  • The current leader among SS's is Mookie Betts
  • He is putting up slightly better numbers than the experts expected him to.
  • In the past two weeks he has had an awful lot of time off. Either he isn't an every day player or he is coming back from an injury of some sort. I suggest checking out his news page to get a closer look.
  • Trending Batting Stats

  • Not too impressive and is currently ranked 156th in RBI with 2
  • Top 75 in runs scored and is currently ranked 63rd with 3
  • Top 35 in HRs and is currently ranked 28th with 2
  • On second thought, he hasn't played in quite enough games for me to calculate a reliable analysis for you. Expect his rating to evolve over the next few days.
  • At this point in the season his numbers compared to last years: AVG: +0.231, OBP: +0.231, HRs: +2, RBI: +2, Runs: +3, Wlks: EVEN, Stls: EVEN,
