Just before June ended, I listed three Cleveland Indians who I felt were going to have a big July. Among those three players, I noted that Carlos Santana looked primed to have a big uptick in the upcoming month. One of the biggest reasons for this prediction was that he has historically been great in July, and he was showing signs of improvement in June.
Since that post went online, Carlos Santana has been an absolute beast. In 51 July at-bats, the switch-hitter has batted .373 with a slugging percentage of .725. All this considered, his run creation has been over twice that of the average player, something that is in the elite territory.
