June’s MVP: Didi Gregorius
This came in very close as Carlos Beltran actually had better overall numbers but in terms of true value, Didi was a knight in shining armor for the New York Yankees this month.
Time in and time out, the Yankees’ shortstop always seemed to come up with the big play whether it was a home run, game tying single or an acrobatic play on the field.
Overall, Didi maintained a .337/.368/.535 slash line along with four home runs and 18 RBIs. Those numbers also include a .373 batting average in the last 15 games with a walk-off home run on Wednesday night and a game-tying shot on Thursday.
Honorable Mentions:
- Carlos Beltran: .366, 7 HRs, 22-RBI, .535 SLG%
- Andrew Miller: 3-0, 1.93 ERA, 16.7 K/9
- Michael Pineda: 1-1, 2.75 ERA, .201 BAA
