Players to Watch: Miami Marlins vs. Milwaukee Brewers
Miami Marlins
Otto Lopez — SS. Hitting .334 with a .368 on-base percentage and a .505 slugging mark, Lopez has been the most consistent bat in the Marlins’ lineup this season. His blend of average and pop from the shortstop position gives Miami a rare source of everyday offense up the middle.
Heriberto Hernandez — LF. Hernandez has provided pop in left field, launching 13 home runs and driving in 36 runs while hitting .236 this season. He’s the kind of hitter capable of altering a game with one swing even when the batting average lags behind the power numbers.
Liam Hicks — C. Behind the plate, Hicks has racked up a team-leading 58 RBIs to go with 13 home runs and a .290 average. His steady production from the catcher spot has made him one of the more complete two-way contributors in Miami’s lineup this year.
Milwaukee Brewers
William Contreras — C. Milwaukee’s primary catcher, Contreras is hitting .282 with a .344 on-base percentage and a .398 slugging mark this season. His combination of contact and patience has made him one of the more well-rounded backstops in the league.
Jake Bauers — 1B. The Brewers’ first baseman has turned into one of the more reliable power sources in the lineup, clubbing 18 home runs and driving in 59 runs while hitting .268. He gives Milwaukee thump at the bottom of the order that complements the club’s more contact-oriented bats.
Brice Turang — 2B. From the second base spot, Turang has driven in 60 runs with 14 home runs and a .266 average, giving Milwaukee unexpected pop from the middle infield this season. His production at a position not typically known for run production has made him a steady difference-maker for the Brewers all year.
