RT @MLBNetwork: Gabriel Moreno has broken out in a big way this year, slashing .303/.382/.464 with 49 BB-65 K for the @D Via @Dbacks on X

What happened: Gabriel Moreno is slugging .464 for the Arizona Diamondbacks this season. His on-base percentage has reached .382.

Why it matters: Arizona entered Aug. 26 two games out of an NL wild-card spot. That level of production from catcher adds depth to a lineup chasing a postseason berth.

By the numbers: Moreno's slash line produces an .846 OPS. His 49 walks against 65 strikeouts yield a 0.75 walk-to-strikeout ratio.

What to watch: Watch whether Moreno maintains his plate discipline through the final weeks of the regular season.
