Matt Kemp, CF, Los Angeles Dodgers

Of course it's true that IBL has TWO baseball allegiances, the Detroit Tigers in the American League and the Los Angeles Dodgers in the National. And if I can spend paragraph after paragraph writing about the Tigers' release of Brandon Inge, a .100 hitter at the time, I can CERTAINLY spare a few words for the Dodgers' current center fielder, Matt Kemp, and the month he just completed, namely April 2012 -

• a .416 batting average, which leads the league.
• a .490 on base percentage, which is second in the league (by like four points).
• 12 home runs which leads the league.
• 25 runs batted in which leads the league (though Ethier of Los Angeles is right behind him with 24).
• an .893 slugging percentage which leads the league.

Holy crap is all I can say.
