What Didi Gregorius' success means

For those who haven't noticed--or for those who have been living under a rock for the past month--Didi Gregorius has been playing very well. He's been playing so well, in fact, that he is now up to 2.4 rWAR, 2.2 fWAR, and 1.7 WARP on the season. He is now also up to 92 wRC+, which would be tied for the best offensive season in his career. Hitting .327/.364/.433 after the All-Star break can have that effect.

There will certainly be a lot of excitement about Gregorius' recent hot streak, and rightfully so. This a very young player on a team with a dearth of young position players, and many fans and writers may have high hopes about him being part of some post-Derek Jeter core.
