NEW YORK -- Jesus Aguilar knows he cannot control his playing time. But in the meantime, he will continue to focus on what he can control, namely squaring up pitches and making opposing pitchers pay -- something he has become keen on recently.
"The only thing I can control is trying to hit the ball hard," Aguilar said. "From there, you can't really control what happens."
On Sunday against Arizona, according to Statcast™, Aguilar delivered exit velocities of 105 mph or more three times, including a 110.8-mph groundout. The other two instances were singles at 107.
