J.D. Martinez (327 wRC+, five HRs) and Rhys Hoskins (320 wRC+, six HRs) are the hottest bats in the majors

J.D. Martinez (327 wRC+, 54.6 Hard%, five HRs) and Rhys Hoskins (320 wRC+, 53.3 Hard%, six HRs) are the hottest bats in the majors over the last week (10 PA min.). They are one/two via wRC+ and HRs over that span. Both have been residents near this end of the board for the last month and a half or so. Hoskins certainly has the better matchup at home against Daniel Mengden (RHBs .358 wOBA career), Martinez is certainly almost never a bad play at this point. Jeff Samardzija has been tough on RHBs at home though, allowing just two of his 28 HRs with a 23.6 K-BB% and -2.0 Hard-Soft% this year in that situation. Lane Adams (315 wRC+, 60 Hard%, one HR) is also above a 300 wRC+ over the last week in 15 PAs, striking out just once. Adeiny Hechavarria (159 wRC+, 86.7 Hard%, one HR) has apparently made hard contact at a higher rate than any other batter over the last week, which may be difficult to accept. Believe it or not, he has a healthy 110 wRC+ and .194 ISO vs LHP this year. Chris Sale has allowed multiple HRs five of his last 15 starts. Convincing enough?

Unlikely. Clint Frazier (69 wRC+, 83.3 Hard%, no HRs) is the only other batter above 70% and just hits the 10 PA cutoff. The obvious issue is that he's either struck out or walk in four of those opportunities.
