Players to Watch: Houston Astros vs. Philadelphia Phillies
Houston Astros
Yordan Alvarez — DH. He is hitting .312 with 38 home runs and 96 RBIs, numbers that make him the centerpiece of Houston’s offense this season. His .428 OBP and .593 SLG show a hitter just as comfortable working a walk as he is driving one out of the yard.
Christian Walker — 1B. Power has defined his season at first base, where he has driven in 80 runs and added 25 home runs for Houston. His .228 average trails his .426 SLG by a wide margin, a profile built almost entirely around power over contact.
Isaac Paredes — 3B. He mans third base for the Astros and brings a .260 average with 19 home runs and 82 RBIs into this game. His .360 OBP gives Houston a patient bat in the middle of the lineup to go with the power surrounding him.
Philadelphia Phillies
Bryce Harper — 1B. Harper is hitting .271 with 27 home runs and 82 RBIs on the season. His .388 OBP and .495 SLG give Philadelphia a middle of the order presence that pairs patience with power.
Kyle Schwarber — DH. Forty-four home runs and 92 RBIs have come from his bat this year, a power season that has carried Philadelphia’s lineup all summer. He is hitting .242 with a .356 OBP and a .530 SLG, numbers that reflect a hitter built around power rather than batting average.
Trea Turner — SS. He sets the table at the top of Philadelphia’s order, hitting .243 with 19 home runs and 56 RBIs. His .295 OBP and .391 SLG add up to a season in which a middle infielder has still provided real thump for the Phillies.
