Gregorius drops the hammer... During his .287, 25 HR, and 87 RBI performance in 2017, Didi Gregorius (SS, NYY) had a few metrics that were skeptical of his pop. Over the month of April, he has been the best hitter in MLB, as he has hit .368 with ten HR and 30 RBI. Do the metrics support his power going forward in 2018?
