Alonso Looks Back to Normal- Player Commentary- June 7, 2026
Pete Alonso– 1B- BAL- Hot- Alonso extended his current hitting streak to 10 games. He went 1-for-4 and slugged his 13th homer of the season. Since May 13th he has gone 27-for-87 with 5 homers, 11 runs, and 18 RBI. Alonso had only hit 2 homers through April 21 but now is on pace to at least get to his preseason projection of 37 homers.
Nathan Lukes– OF- TOR- Stats- Since coming back from a strained hamstring on May 25, Lukes has hit safely in all but one game. He has gone 16-for-41 with a homer. Before yesterday’s 1-for-4 effort Lukes had a BABIP of .467 in that stretch. His EV was 84.7 and HardHit% was 34.4%. Expect some regression to dampen Lukes’ results.
Sean Burke– P- CHW- Cold- Burke earned the win yesterday as a follower. He entered the game in the 2nd inning and pitched 4.1 IPs. Burke’s performance was good enough to get the win, but it was not sparkling. He was charged with 3 runs on 3 hits and 5 walks. Burke’s 7 Ks were a positive. He threw 50 of 90 pitches for strikes, so his control was less than exceptional. Burke has an ERA of 3.88 with a 3.70 FIPS. With the White Sox performing much better than in the past couple of seasons, Burke even has a chance to pick up some more wins.
Alex Lange– RP- KC- Rise Value- Lange saved his third game of the season yesterday. His ERA is at 4.03 but that comes primarily from his outing on 4/20, when he was charged with 5 runs (4 earned) while retiring just one batter. He is the Royals closer now, saving 3 of their last 4 games.
Bobby Witt, Jr.- SS- KC- Great Player- With Aaron Judge out for an extended period of time, Witt is the subject of MVP speculation. He and Yordan Alvarez were the new wagering favorites. Yesterday Witt went 2-for-5 with a RBI and steal. He is slashing .284/.359/.463 with 9 homers and 23 steals. Witt has hit 6 of his homers in the last month. His EV has improved from 2025 to 93.5 and his HardHit% is up to 52.7%. Witt has an xBA of .306 and xSLG of .526. Expect him to produce in a way more like what we have grown to expect.
