J.T. Realmuto Stays Hot With Three-Run Homer
4 years agoPhiladelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto went 1-for-4 vs the Mets on Friday, but made the one count blasting a three-run homer into the left field seats. The homer was Realmuto's eighth of the season tying him for second in the Majors. Realmuto has been one of the hottest hitters in baseball and his batted ball data backs up his sizzling start. Realmuto has eight barrels in 37 batted balls and is among the league leaders in hard-hit rate (56.8 percent), expected slugging (.750), and xWOBA (.451). He is the top catcher in fantasy and has another good matchup Saturday vs left-hander Steven Matz.
