Stats from part 1 and part 2 of Mike Moustakas' career

1
  1. Part 1 (6/10/11-7/28/12): 263 avg/313 obp/416 slg/729 OPS. 759 PA. 21 HR/42 2B/47 BB/184 hits
  2. Part 2 (7/31/12-4/5/14): 219 avg/275 obp/344 slg/619 OPS. 751 PA. 16 HR/36 2B/48 BB/151 hits
  3. What happened on July 28th, 2012? Mike Moustakas sprained his knee on a defensive play. He missed a game, claimed he was fine, and returned on July 31st
  4. But after that sprain, Moustakas' 2012 numbers sank. He added onto that ending by posting a terrible offensive season in 2013. And his 2014 has started with a similar lack of promise as he's not even close to being useful on offense.
  5. So when I found that Moustakas almost had the same number of PAs pre and post sprain, I felt like making the numbers known, to remind people that Mike Moustakas was on his way towards being a good offensive player once. But since July 28th, 2012, he's been a black hole on offense for a multitude of reasons, all starting with that sprain
