ANALYSIS: Suwinski has come a long way this season. What started off as a strong-side platoon role in the middle-back part of the Pirates' batting order has blossomed into an everyday playing spot. Overall, Suwinski sports an impressive .817 OPS with 21 home runs. He's emerged as a core producer in the Pittsburgh offense, and the recent departure of Carlos Santana further cements Suwinski's importance to the team.
Jack Suwinski’s 18.4% barrel rate is the 3rd highest among qualified batters in MLB this season.

While Suwinski's .218 batting average isn't much to look at, his comprehensive approach at the plate is effective. He's absolutely crushing the ball this season to the tune of a .502 xSLG, 18.1% barrel rate, 92 MPH average exit velocity, and 48.9% hard-hit rate. Suwinski also compensates for his low batting average with an elite 14.2% walk rate.
