Best Batter Today

Fernando Tatis Jr. of the Padres used a game score of 76, third highest on Monday night, to jump to third place in the Baseball Musings Batter Rankings. He hit two home runs and drew a walk in the 10-4 win over the Cubs. Tatis owns a .361/.429/.672 slash line on the young season.

Aaron Judge of the Yankees remains in first place after posting a two for four in a 4-1 win over the Royals, all five runs coming on solo homers. Shohei Ohtani of the Dodgers holds second place after a three for five with a home run in the 5-3 win over the Rockies.

Mets Juan Soto and Pete Alonso rank fourth and fifth respectively. Soto homered and Alonso went two for two with two walks in the 5-1 win over the Twins.

The best game score of the day belonged to Kameron Misner of the Rays, an 83. He went three for four with two home runs and a walk in the 16-1 pounding of the Red Sox. After an unimpressive cup of coffee in 2024, Misner owns a .400/.444/.775 slash line in his rookie year, with eight of his seventeen hits going for extra bases. The power is new; he never showed that kind of slugging in his full seasons in the minors, so take that with a grain of salt. Still, he is seasonal age 27, so if he is going to have a great season, now is the time.

Winning Misnerly

Kameron Misner comes up for his first plate appearance of the season leading off the bottom of the ninth, with the Rockies and Rays tied at two. He came in to play leftfield after a pinch hitter took Christopher Morel out of the game.

Misner went one for 15 in 2024 with ten strikeouts and nothing else. His 2025 season is already 100 times better. He didn’t show much power in the minor leagues, but did get on base very well.

Kyle Freeland of the Rockies pitched a great game, allowing two hits, no walks, and no runs in six innings striking out seven. The bullpen quickly gave up the 2-0 lead, Misner’s home run winning the game 3-2.

Peninsula Trade

The Marlins acquire Joey Wendle from the Rays for minor league player Kameron Misner.

He primarily plays third base but has started at second base and shortstop as well in addition to nine career starts in left field, setting himself up for a super-utility role with the Marlins who have Brian Anderson as their primary third baseman, Miguel Rojas at shortstop and Jazz Chisholm Jr. at second base.

The Marlins get a decent utility player for an outfielder who gets on base. Misner plays 2022 as a 24 year-old, and it seems losing a minor league season to the pandemic kept him in the low minors too long. He hasn’t shown much power yet, but I suspect the Rays see him as a good table setter. He is 37 for 41 stealing bases.
