(Over the last 10 games)
José Tabata: In his last 10 games, he's hitting .325, although he only has 3 extra-base hits in that stretch (all doubles). He has also walked 5 times (continuing to show good plate discipline) against 5 strikeouts, and he stole 3 bases. While José has not shown much power this year, he's hitting for average, stealing bases, and drawing walks without striking out too often.
Shelley Duncan: In this 10-game stretch, Shelley is hitting .343 with 4 homers, 1 double, 16 RBI, and 8 walks against 9 strikeouts. His OBP is .465 during this hot streak, which shows that either Shelley is being selective at the plate or that pitchers are being especially careful of him because they are afraid of his power.
Reegie Corona: In his last 10 games, Reegie is hitting .349, picking up multiple hits in 6 of his last 10 games. While he is hitting, he has also struck out 10 times while walking only 4. Reegie has also stolen 2 bases over this stretch.
Brett Gardner: Over his last 10, Brett is hitting .351 with a double and a triple as his only extra-base hits. He has also stolen 3 bases while being caught only once, and has walked 6 times against 8 strikeouts, giving him an OBP of .442 over that span. Brett has hit very well since returning from injury, and is batting .390 in June.
