He's somehow also only grounded into 1 double play. Contrast that with Soto, who is also having a monster year, but has 16 GIDPs
Even with all the extra base hits, his slugging percentage is not in the top 10 currently in the league. It seems like it's his defense and base running that are what really has his WAR up so high.
