Breakdown Lourdes Gurriel Jr.

    Overview

  • Experts rank this player at 55th among OF's. Based on his stats from the past 60 days, he is currently ranked 15th.
  • The current leader among OF's is Aaron Judge
  • You have to be impressed by how much better he is performing. Can he keep this up or is it a fluke?
  • 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

  • Top 20 in BABIP (Batting Average on Balls In Play) with 0.176 and is currently ranked 17th
  • Top 15 in batting average with 0.211 and is currently ranked 15th

  • Top 75 in runs scored and is currently ranked 57th with 3
  • Top 100 in HRs and is currently ranked 98th with 1
  • 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: -0.26, OBP: -0.315, HRs: -2, RBI: -7, Runs: -3, Wlks: -2, Stls: -1,
