Cabrera and Davis Dominate Baseball

Miguel Cabrera, the Detroit Tigers slugger, is the hottest hitter in baseball. Chris Davis, the powerful first baseman for the Baltimore Orioles is not far behind. Together, the two players dominate nearly every single offensive category in baseball. Here are the stats:

Cabrera and Davis Dominate

Indeed, in twelve key offensive statistics, Cabrera or Davis are tops in nine of those categories, including batting average, home runs, RBI, runs, hits, total bases, on-base percentage, slugging percentage and on-base plus slugging percentage.

Davis just smashed two homers on Saturday and now has 30 through June. If he keeps going at this pace, he’ll end up with 60 HR, a Ruthian-like number. Meanwhile, Cabrera is without a doubt, the toughest out in baseball, with a .375 batting average and a 1.139 on-base plug slugging percentage. And nipping at his heels is Davis, whose OPS is 1.133.
