Kris Bryant has been a machine so far in 2018, and he continues to get better with each passing year.

In 39 games (185 plate appearances), Bryant is hitting .305/.427/.583 with a wOBA of .426 that is the best mark in the National League, 8 homers, 24 RBIs, and 29 runs scored. Those numbers are great, but he's also reducing one key number that had been a struggle for him in years past -- strikeouts.

In his rookie season back in 2015, Bryant struck out in 30.6% of his plate appearances. That number had dropped to 22.0% in 2016, 19.2% last year and 15.7% in 2018. He's also hitting the ball harder more often (42.3% hard-hit rate) compared to last year (32.8%), and he's pulling the ball more than ever before -- 54.5% of the time, compared to a career pull rate of 44.3%.

Those numbers are likely to lead to continued power for Bryant. You may not find many owners willing to sell the talented third baseman/outfielder, but if you can find a power-starved Kris Bryant owner and offer him a lesser player with more dingers (Khris Davis for one) plus a good pitcher, you might be able to take advantage of the fact Bryant has hit just eight homers so far this season.
