Kansas City Royals slugger Maikel Garcia is having the kind of breakout season the club has been waiting for. His numbers are through the roof compared to his previous seasons.
In fact, Garcia is having such a good season that a well-regarded pundit and former big leaguer gave him all kinds of plaudits in a recent segment on the MLB Network.
Mark DeRosa was discussing how Garcia is the only player this season to rank in the 80th percentile or higher in whiff percentage, chase percentage, and exit velocity. And the analyst broke down just how impressive the Royals' sluggers' season overall has been.
