Carlos Gomez Benefiting From High BABIP 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Thu May 30, 2013 12:44 pm

Carlos Gomez is having a career-season for the Brewers, hitting .326 with 10 home runs and 13 doubles. He ranks third in the National League in extra-base hits.


Gomez is still striking out at a high rate, while walking rarely. The difference this season has been that he's hitting the ball harder, leading to more line drives and a high batting average on balls in play.


He has a .380 BABIP, up from .296 last season when he hit .260.
