On the season, Garcia is batting .284 while being a solid contributor in steals with 15 thefts. He's been even better since becoming the Royals' everyday leadoff hitter back on July 1. In that span, Garcia is batting .305 with a .438 slugging percentage with 11 runs scored and 18 RBI. With his team in full-fledged rebuild mode, Garcia should continue to get everyday playing time while batting ahead of Bobby Witt Jr.That's not a bad setup for fantasy production.
