Launch Angle: Does it matter? There is a need to hit the ball high in order for it to travel over the fence, but Barrel Rate plays into it, as does playing time and team context, of course. Looking forward to 2026, here's 5 hitters near the top of MLB in Launch Angle Average in 2025.

• Cody Bellinger's Big Season in New York-August 31, 2025

He is hitting .250 with 19 HR, 65 R, 55 RBI, and 18 SB in 500 PA. It hasn't been a bad season because he is going to join the 20 HR/20 SB club, but fantasy owners were expecting more from him.

Brandon Lowe (2B-TB) went 1-3 with a 2-run shot and a walk against Cleveland on Wednesday.

Since reaching the majors back in 2018, Lowe has recorded more PA in a single season only once before this year - in 2021. As usual, he's...2025

• Ben Rice Looks Ready to Finish Strong - August 26, 2025
Drake Baldwin (C-ATL) was the lone bright spot offensively for Atlanta on Monday against the Marlins as he went 1-3 with a walk and a solo blast to score the team's only run of the game.

In his last 7 games before this contest, Baldwin was hitting just .167 with no homers, 6 RBI, and 4 runs...2025

Brenton Doyle (OF - COL) - Doyle homered again on Thursday, giving him 6 now in August as he continues to drag himself out of his slump that lasted all the way until late June. If you just looked at the underlying stats, you'd think that Doyle was having a better year than 2024: he's making more contact (74.3% vs. 73%), and the contact is better (EV 90.3 vs. 89.1).
