🔓 Since making his MLB debut with the Dodgers at age 22 in 2022, Miguel Vargas has been one of the most fascinating hitters to evaluate. The talent was always visible: a strong understanding of the strike zone, advanced plate discipline, and the ability to make quality swing decisions. But the results never fully matched the underlying skills. In 2026, something finally changed. Vargas has turned those traits into the kind of production many expected when he first arrived in the majors. In this analysis, I explore what has driven his transformation and why his breakout feels less like a reinvention and more like the arrival of the player many believed he could become. https://lnkd.in/eWmTNP_t
