WBC Glory or Hidden Curse? The Shocking Truth Behind MLB Stars’ Post-Tournament Performance Slumps
Tatis, who also smashed a grand slam against Israel, was hit with a downright puzzling power outage once he left Miami and returned to the Padres. Through his first 47 games and 177 at-bats of the season, he’s failed to homer. “El Nino,” as he has been affectionately known to other Dominican stars, has been inexplicably downgraded to a tropical storm and has looked nothing like the three-time All-Star he was before the 2026 WBC.
While Tatis has seen his 2026 OPS+ (76.7) plummet 60.5 points from last season, he’s refused to blame his WBC participation, saying, “I definitely had a blast (at the WBC). I wanted to give everything that I have for my country. I wanted to show them all what I am capable of doing on the baseball field, especially when I’m representing my country. I’m just glad I was able to give them a small taste.”
