José Ramírez Punch Marked Tim Anderson’s Sharp Decline

Before the Aug. 5, 2023 brawl, Anderson owned a .283 average with 98 homers, 332 RBI and an OPS just under .750 across 3,482 at-bats. After Ramírez dropped him, he hit just over .200 with an OPS under .500, never homered again, and logged only 18 RBI in 449 more at-bats. The fall derailed his path as a core bat.
