ROSTERED IN: 8% of Leagues

Pratto is slashing .258/.346/.404 for the season, with a 109 wRC+. Versus right-handed pitchers on the road, in the last 30 days, the Royals are averaging a .244 batting average with nine home runs and 29 RBI. Pratto has been a bit inconsistent, but things are looking up for the outfielder, and a stretch versus right-handed pitchers will get him back on track.
