Jazz Chisholm Jr. has been one of the few good things for the Marlins in the second half of the season. Fortunately, he left his July struggles behind and has been much better in August, with notable offensive improvements that can set the table for the next campaign as the Marlins’ everyday second baseman.
In 16 games in July, Chisholm owned a .232/.295/.375 slash line and struck out 17 times in 16 games. But that has changed in the current month: .275/.321/.471 in 15 contests (14-for-51), with one double, three home runs, nine runs batted in, 10 scored runs, three walks, and only 10 strikeouts.
