At 38-28, the Milwaukee Brewers have reached their high water mark for the season, 10 games over .500. It's been a year of great performances from players like Christian Yelich, Mike Moustakas, Yasmani Grandal and Josh Hader -- and heck, it might be easy to miss just how great.

These five stats that you may have missed should add some good vibes to your early-June baseball fandom.

Christian Yelich has an OPS since last all-star break that is on par with greatest ever

It's no secret that Christian Yelich has been borderline unstoppable since last year's all-star game. Since the second half began, Yelich has posted a bananas 1.208 OPS over 124 games. That's a great number to sustain over a month, let alone 124 games. In fact, Mike Trout -- widely considered the best player in modern baseball -- has posted an OPS that high only ONCE in a month since 2016 (in May of 2017, Trout was at 1.280).

Trout and Cody Bellinger can still be regarded as the best outfielders in baseball in 2019, although Yelich's OPS did creep past Bellinger's over the weekend. It's 1.191 to 1.131 after Monday for the top two NL MVP candidates in 2019. Trout, meanwhile, is at 1.096 this season.

The record for best OPS over a season belongs to Barry Bonds at 1.4217 in 2004. Insane. Next is Bonds two years earlier at 1.3807. If Yelich sustained this number over the next 37 games, it would be equivalent to the 19th best OPS in a season in Major League history -- and really fewer than that, since those single-season tallies are for calendar seasons and not necessarily 162 games (Yelich has missed six games this year, for example).

Eleven of those top-18 seasons were recorded by either Bonds or Babe Ruth.

At the moment, Josh Hader is the best strikeout pitcher of all time (but guess who's seventh?)

It's no secret that Josh Hader is capable of striking out just about everybody. Of pitchers who have thrown at least 100 innings in their career (heck, he'd still be No. 1 if the value was set at 30 innings), Hader's 15.42 strikeouts per nine innings is best ever, ahead of Aroldis Chapman (14.87). It might give Brewers fans some heartache to know that Craig Kimbrel is third (14.67).

It should be noted that eight of the other nine in the top 10 have more innings pitched than Hader -- by quite a bit -- and most of the guys at the top of the list are recent, given the uptick in strikeouts in recent years and the fact that most haven't gone through a late period to their careers, where strikeouts dip. Rob Dibble (10th) is the only player in the top 10 who isn't active. But, for the time being, Hader is the best ever.

Brewers fans might be surprised to know that Corey Knebel is seventh on that list, with 12.96 strikeouts per nine innings.

Hader is also the best ever at strikeout percentage (45.1%), well ahead of second-place Kimbrel (41.6) with 100 innings as the benchmark. He strikes out nearly half the batters who make plate appearances against him. Knebel is again seventh (34.7%).

To reiterate, if a Major League baseball player steps into the box against Josh Hader, there is a 45 percent chance he's going to strike out. That's incredible.

Yasmani Grandal has been the best catcher in baseball since 2016

Yasmani Grandal is having a great season, and the Brewers' one-year deal for the backstop is looking like a stroke of genius.

Grandal is 24th in the Major Leagues in WAR this year according to Fangraphs (2.5 WAR), second behind JT Realmuto of the Phillies (21st, 2.6 WAR) among catchers in 2019 so far. But if we rewind to the all-star break last year, his 4.6 WAR is 17th among all players in baseball, tops among catchers (Realmuto is at 3.9).

Heck, if you go back a couple years and look at 2016 to now, Grandal's 17.4 is 11th among all players, easily best among catchers (Buster Posey at 14.9). In other words, the Brewers have a guy that could easily be identified as the most productive catcher in baseball for the past three-plus seasons (granted, only the most recent stuff has been FOR the Brewers, but this is why the deal made so much sense).

Since Mike Moustakas arrived in Milwaukee, he's a top-three infielder in homers

Since Mike Moustakas joined the Brewers following a midseason trade with the Royals last July, he's tied for third among all NL infielders in homers

His 28 home runs since July 28 are behind only Trevor Story of the Rockies (32) and Javier Baez of the Cubs (30); he's tied at that third spot with Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado, who just signed a massive contract extension in the offseason.

If we draw from August 1 of last year, Moustakas is tied for third among all MLB infielders in homers.

Brandon Woodruff is on pace to reach 200 strikeouts

Is it still too early to do the "on pace for" comparisons?

Brandon Woodruff has 90 strikeouts thus far, putting him on pace for 220 this season, and that would be the third-best single season in Brewers history. He'd be the first to clear 200 strikeouts in a season since Yovani Gallardo in 2012.

That's an apt name for a Woodruff comparison because Gallardo was also a great hitter. His best season of hitting came when he recorded 16 hits in 2010; that's fifth among players whose primary position was pitcher. Brooks Kieschnick (who was, of course, an unusual two-way player) had 21 hits in 2003, and Glendon Rusch had 19 in 2002. Woodruff currently sits at 10, on pace to flirt with more than 20.
