| 7/13/25 | Padres' Jackson Merrill gets brutally honest on 'playing like s**t'. For the first few months of the 2025 MLB season, it sure looked like Jackson Merrill, the runner-up to Paul Skenes in the 2024 NL Rookie of the Year race, was going to avoid having a sophomore slump entirely. Merrilll, for the first two or so months of the season, was raking for the San Diego Padres, putting up a slash line of .303/.343/.479 — nothing to scoff at even if his power production may be down from last season. Since the 13th of June (one month ago), the Padres center fielder has gone through a brutal stretch at the plate, slashing .169/.293/.273. On the one hand, it's good to see Merrill try to expand his game by taking more pitches and drawing more walks. Source: https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/san-diego-padres/padr... |
