What about …
Bryce Harper? If you’re wondering why Washington’s star slugger wasn’t among the statistical leaders, it’s because multiple injuries limited him to just 33 games. He was back in time for the playoffs, however.
Ronald Acuna? The Braves’ super rookie played most of the season with the big club, appearing in 151 games. Acuna hit only .229 with a .282 OBP, but he showed some pop with 24 HR.
