Lorenzo Cain struggled in 2019 at the plate to the tune of an OPS of .697. His OPS fell by .116 from 2018 to 2019. He scored fewer runs, had fewer hits and had a lower batting average last year.
The Brewers were able to win the NL Central in 2018 in large part to the contributions from their leadoff spot. Needless to say, he needs to rebound for the Brewers to contend in 2020, especially since Yasmani Grandal signed with the White Sox and Mike Moustakas is a free agent.
Injuries & Bad Luck
Cain may have struggled hitting in 2019, but his struggles might be explained by injuries that bugged him throughout the year; including a thumb injury that required cryotherapy.
