Dillon Dingler’s Slump Has Become a Real Tigers Concern
Dillon Dingler enters Friday night's game against Kansas City stuck in a brutal 3-for-48 skid.
Dillon Dingler's offensive performance has taken a sharp turn for the worse. Since August 7, the Tigers' All-Star catcher has struggled at the plate, batting just .063 over his last 12 games. His slump has affected not just his batting average, but also his on-base percentage and slugging percentage. Instead of his usual destructive power, Dingler has produced only five total bases in 48 at-bats during this stretch.
This dramatic decline in performance is particularly concerning as the Tigers are still aiming for a playoff berth.
