MINNEAPOLIS -- Detroit Tigers center fielder Leonys Martin is off to the best start of his career.
So would you be surprised to know that he's also been monumentally unlucky?
Martin has an impressive weighted on-base average of .341.
(wOBA is a measure of overall offensive production. Think of it as a fancier and more accurate version of OPS).
But Martin's expected wOBA is .404, which would put him right behind Jose Ramirez and Aaron Judge for seventh-best in the American League.
But Martin isn't the unluckiest Tiger so far in 2018.
