SURGING BATS

Peter Bourjos continues to be red-hot at the plate, batting .444 over the last seven games. He added on a home run in today’s game against the Diamondbacks.

After struggling mightily to start the season, Bourjos has really ramped up his offensive game in the last few weeks, and it has really helped to spark the entire lineup.

Maikel Franco had a fantastic week at the plate, hitting .320 with a homer, three doubles and a triple. Franco has had a hard time getting on track offensively this season, so hopefully his current hot streak at the plate will carry through to the second half.

After struggling the previous week, Odubel Herrera picked things up, batting .345 with two doubles, a homer, and 4 RBIs.

Cesar Hernandez had a nice bounce back week at the plate, hitting .421 over his last half-dozen games.

Andres Blanco batted .389 for the week with a homer and four RBI.

Cameron Rupp also had a great week at the plate, batting .357 with two homers and four RBI.
