Another week, another list of hot and cold hitters. A lot of familiar faces in the “cold” section this week. I think I am going to write a blog soon about Elly De La Cruz and Oneil Cruz. If they started their career outside the Statcast Era, they might have been DFAd. Hot take, sorry.
Here are Seven Hot and Seven Cold players from the last week.
