Correa was called up to the Majors in June, and surely did his part to show he belongs batting .287 with 5 home runs and 15 runs batted in while Franco had been up in the Majors since May, but struggled during that month and figured things out in June hitting .352 with 8 home runs and 24 runs batted in.
