Anyone can get hot over a series or even a week’s worth of games, but it takes a really special player to post extraordinary numbers over the course of month or more. Kris Bryant is just such a player and we’ve pointed out on more than one occasion how he had made some adjustments and was getting ready to blow up in the second half.
He’s done exactly that so far, hitting three homers and walking twice as frequently as he’s struck out in the six games since his third All-Star appearance.
