Players to Watch: Colorado Rockies vs. San Diego Padres
Colorado Rockies
Jake McCarthy — CF. Colorado’s center fielder is putting together his best offensive season yet, hitting .296 with a .338 on-base percentage and a .497 slugging percentage. That blend of contact and pop makes him one of the more complete bats in the Rockies’ lineup.
Hunter Goodman — C. Goodman’s power production is unusual for the position, and his 31 home runs and 60 RBIs on a .256 average show it. His .550 slugging percentage and .327 on-base mark give Colorado a middle-of-the-order threat from behind the plate.
Cole Carrigg — CF. A newer piece of Colorado’s outfield mix, Carrigg has hit .301 with 5 home runs, 26 RBIs, a .370 on-base percentage and a .526 slugging mark. He gives the Rockies a table-setter who can also do damage once he reaches base.
San Diego Padres
Fernando Tatis Jr. — RF. San Diego’s right fielder is hitting .285 with a .353 on-base percentage and a .400 slugging percentage, a balanced line built on both contact and patience. His on-base ability makes him one of the more disruptive presences in the Padres’ lineup.
Manny Machado — 3B. The longtime Padres third baseman is hitting .216 with 23 home runs and 64 RBIs, and his .442 slugging percentage shows the power is still there even in a lower-average season. He remains a central run producer in the middle of San Diego’s lineup.
Jackson Merrill — CF. San Diego’s center fielder has already turned in 15 home runs and 47 RBIs this season, hitting .235 with a .394 slugging percentage. He gives the Padres another middle-of-the-order bat capable of changing a game with one swing.
