July 2014

7/1: vs Los Angles Angels of Anaheim: L 8-4, HRD: 1.2643

7/4: vs Seattle Mariners: W 7-1, HRD: 1.0377

7/9: @ Boston Red Sox: L 5-4, HRD: 1.2643

7/12: @ Cleveland Indians: W 6-2, HRD: 0.9719

Since July’s totals are not from the entire month (1^st half ends July 13^th), Abreu did not hit as many home runs as he usually does (just four). Therefore, his HRD was lower, as it came in a 4.5382. Even though he only hit four home runs total, his DPA was above one (1.1346). Frazier didn’t even homer once in this month, meaning that he gets no HRD or DPA for July. Bucking the trend from previous months, Abreu didn’t victimize any single team more than once. As far as the White Sox win/loss record, they played .500 ball with a record of 2-2.

Now that every month has been broken down, it is time to evaluate Abreu and Frazier by totaling up their entire first half HRD and DPA stats.
