Otto Lopez interview: MLB hits leader explains his training process

Barely two years after being claimed off waivers by the Miami Marlins, Otto López is leading the team in wins above replacement and producing at an All-Star level. The 27-year-old shortstop joins AJ Ramos, Kevin Barral and Isaac Azout for an exclusive interview, peeling back the curtain on how the Marlins develop hitting, evaluating his defense, sharing what an All-Star selection would mean to him and much more.

Lopez enters Thursday with a .342/.370/.489 slash line, five home runs and 11 stolen bases while playing in 67 of 68 Marlins games this season. He leads all of Major League Baseball with 91 hits—there's a staggering 20-hit gap between him and any other NL shortstop.
