While seemingly very few people have paid attention to him as an individual, Kolten Wong is stringing together a great season for the St. Louis Cardinals.

In his first full Major League season with the Cardinals, Wong hit 12 home runs and drove in 42 more. He also stole 20 bases in the 113 games he played, more than double than any other player on the Cardinal’s roster.
