Lance Berkamn of the Houston Astros on-base percentage looks nice, but his power numbers are awful, especially considering that Minute Maid Park isn't exactly cavernous. His strikeouts are on the rise, too.
Speaking of injuries, Ian Kinsler has been on the DL five times in his five years in The Show, most recently for an ankle sprain in April. There isn't much wrong with Kinsler's numbers this year on the surface. But his vanished power is very distressing, considering that he's he hit 30 homers last year and has a career SLG of .467, more than 100 points higher than this year.
