Our next incorrect is George Springer, who was leading the AL in home runs until Aaron Judge went crazy. His OPS is .808.

Our final incorrect is noted hothead Manny Machado. The fans could do without some of his questionable behavior and quick temper, but on the field he has a .829 OPS.

This question's SHEEP answer is worth 7 points. Mike Podhozer recently wrote an article on Fangraphs where he said that Joey Votto has basically the ideal batted ball profile. Notoriously tight-lipped about his approach at the plate, it seemed in the early going that he was making a big shift in his approach, as his Z-swing went way up. He was probably just setting up the long con, as he's consistently one of the best at combining patience and slugging. His OPS sits at .997.

Next up we have a pair of 6-point answers. The only man in the majors with a higher LD% than Votto last season was my boy Freddie Freeman. He's taking a big step forward this season, adding more power to go with an excellent contact and line drive rate, and his OPS is 3rd in the majors at 1.224.

Our other 6-point answer is Mike Trout. He's just doing what Mike Trout does, and his OPS is 6th in the majors, at 1.146.

Our next correct is worth 4 points. Paul Goldschmidt is another name that perennially lurks near the top of the OPS leaderboards. He's at 1.012 at the moment.

Our next correct is worth 2 points. Kris Bryant's OPS was at .974 entering Sunday Night baseball, and as I type this, he's at .967. I'll keep an eye on it, but for now I'm calling him correct.

Our final ace is the man the Koreans simply call "God." Eric Thames went on an absolute tear a couple weeks ago. He's since cooled off, but at the moment, his OPS is 1.170.
