On a typical morning, I turn on MLB Network to assist myself in with the baseball news of the previous day. Oftentimes the content is focused on the young stars of the game: Tatis Jr., Guerrero Jr., Bichette, Acuna Jr. and Soto are among those mentioned nearly every day.
Rarely is the name Yordan Alvarez spoken in this context, yet his statistics through his first 162 major league games are phenomenal. And with the Houston Astros at the top of the American League, you would expect to hear more about the slugger.
