Milwaukee Brewers: Is Christian Yelich having a historic year?

Since 1970 the Milwaukee Brewers have had many great individual statistical seasons, but for the sake of this comparison we’ll be comparing Christian Yelich‘s 2018 season to the MVP seasons of Robin Yount and Ryan Braun.

Robin Yount’s MVP seasons

In 1982, Yount had a statistical line that was very impressive across the board. That year he hit 29 homers, and had 114 RBI’s. In addition to that, he also showed good speed, stealing 14 bases. His batting average was .331, his OBP was .379 and his OPS .957. He led all of baseball in hits, total bases, slugging percentage, and on-base percentage.
