Over the off-season, New York Yankee fans wanted Manny Machado, and they moaned and groaned when the team signed DJ LeMahieu to a two year deal instead. While Machado is batting a solid .278, LeMahieu is hitting .331 and is hitting over .360 in June alone.
11 games
With a 2-for-4 effort on Tuesday against the Blue Jays, LeMahieu extended his hitting streak to 11 games. Not just that, but he has been hitting over .500 with runners in scoring position this season.
His OBP is pushing .400, and LeMahieu will be an all-star with a shot at starting the game at second base.
