Willy Adames Belts Two Solo Home Runs on Friday
Willy Adames went 2-for-4 with a pair of solo home runs in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Brewers. It was the second straight game with a home run for the 29-year-old, and it gives him four home runs in his last seven games. The right-handed slugger's batting average sits at a paltry .224 with a .315 wOBA and 104 wRC+ for the season, but he's now up to 22 home runs, 65 RBI, and 76 runs scored. He's hitting just .149 (11-for-74) in August, but for what it is worth, the Dominican is still barreling the ball at a 14.9 percent rate this month and his xSLG for the year is .454 compared to his actual SLG of .410, so there should be more power to come over the remainder of the season, although it looks like he'll fall short of the 32 home run total he tallied last year.
