Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman has been an MVP runner-up in 2019, a World Series champion and a two-time All-Star. By his standards he's not having a good season, hitting .221 with just six home runs in 52 games through Sunday. Indeed, by the numerical standards we're used to that isn't much of a season for anyone.
However, given the leaguewide offensive context of 2022, Bregman is actually having a solid enough year at the plate.
His OPS+ is 112, which is 12% better than that of a league-average hitter. What does that mean?
