Every once in a while month comes along that just feels special. For Cleveland Guardians fans, that was Amed Rosario’s month of August.
Now, for context, this wasn’t the best month of baseball anyone has ever played. It’s nowhere even close to what I consider the gold standard of great Cleveland months: Jason Kipnis lighting the league on fire in May of 2015. Kip posted a .429/.511/.706 slash that month and nearly walked (11.2%) more than he struck out (11.9%). If you’re going to come at the king of great months, you have to top that.
