I may be a bias yankee fan but LeMahieu has been hot. 34 game on base streak.
I think the Freddie Freeman 35 straight plate appearances without swinging and missing is a more impressive stat.

Freddie Freeman. I doubt he gets lightning, but I bet he gets a mid 90's.

And why do you doubt he gets the lightning card. .440 BA 9 hr 26 rbi since june 20. Top that off with that insane streak of not swinging and missing at a single pitch. + 40 to his batting average. That to me sounds like a POTM candidate by any measure of the word.

Is SDS planning on giving him a signature series? an MVP Card? Sometimes there is more that goes into their decision for POTM than simply the stats. Not saying that he won't get it, just that there are other factors at play.

I’m not saying that this doesn’t factor in, however the post that you replied to was in reference to someone else’s post which made it seem like his stats weren’t POTM caliber based on the tone of the post which seemed a bit dismissive. I pointed to his stats since last month which encompass more than a months timeframe of activity. Either way the lightning POTM is gonna have to go to one of the POTMs whether it’s the AL version or NL version.

Yeah Freddie has got to be in there somewhere. He’s raised his average like 80 points in the last month and is going deep fairly often this month

Yeah, anyone who suggests he isn't deserving based on his stats either hates Freeman, the Braves or is selfishly hoping for their own pick to get it.
I would love to see Goldy get an upgraded card since he is only a silver these days but he is unfortunate to get hot the same month Freeman got hotter.
There are 3 Cardinals that should at least be in the discussion although I would be surprised if any of them sneak in.
Kwan Kim - 4-0 for the month with 4 quality starts. ERA of 0.72 and a whip of 0.76.
Goldy - .361 AVG. A 15 game hitting streak to begin the month.
Bader - .338 avg for the month and played some stellar defense. -

soto. he’s got 5 hr’s in 4 games since his return from the HRD
Was my first thought but I doubt they give him another card. His defense has been pretty bad too so I’m not sure if they’d be able to even get his card to 99.
Actual defense doesn’t matter to SDS when they do their ratings. They still have Tatis as a diamond defense despite league MLB in errors this year. And Judge is somehow a 99 on defense.

A lot of Tatis’ errors were just him getting to a ball that no their SS can get to and throwing it away trying to do too much. It’s not that he’s bad defensively he’s almost too gifted. Just needs to take it easy

One of the two players that is the player of the month lol. Give me a week and I'll make a 50/50 guess haha

I wouldn't mind it, but haven't looked at other players performances. Also, I expect him to get an awards card, so it makes no sense to give him a 99 now.

Sanchez Renfroe Machado Merrifield.. possibly a Sean Murphy card too...pitching ? Idk people been getting blown up all mnth outside of Degrom
-
I'm thinking more and more it's got to be Freddie Freeman... on fire right now and didn't get an All-Star card (Albies and Acuna Jr.)
-
Still hoping that Harrison Bader can snag one of the cards this month. Batting .362 for the month and has raised his average 93 points during the month. He has 9 multi-hit games including the last two games where he has gone 3-4 each game with a HR. He has hit safely in 21 of 25 games this month.

Chris Taylor

What about David Fletcher? Does a 26 game hit streak just not matter anymore?
I second a David Fletcher card!!!
