J.P. Crawford is Having an All-Star Season…Again
J.P Crawford is on the cusp of being an All-Star.
If it feels like you have already heard that, you aren’t losing your mind, or experiencing a case of déjà vu. Last year at this time, baseball fans were having the same debate — is J.P. Crawford an All-Star?
This year, however, J.P. has left little doubt that he has earned the opportunity to be in uniform on July 19 in Los Angeles for the All-Star Game.
Crawford ranks among the best AL shortstops in several offensive categories, including batting average (2nd, .281), on-base percentage (2nd, .365), times on base (2nd, 101), multi-hit games (4th, 20), fWAR (T3rd, 1.8) and wRC+ (T2nd, 132).
