So March. He's reverted back to March type numbers which was when he was opening a season coming back from a major injury. The best hitter in baseball this season has reverted back to his March numbers after taking a week off before his NLDS with the Padres.
MLB really needs to rethink their post season cause the best teams and best players continue to struggle after taking a week off from baseball.
Keep in mind, I'm no fan of the Dodgers. Aaron Judge had a 1.019 OPS in September. He's sitting at .476 in the post season. These are the superstars of the league, the players we spent all season tracking. If they, similar to last year with last year's superstars, don't even make it out of their respective division series...
