Adalberto Mondesi Hits 10th Triple
5 years agoKansas City Royals speedster Adalberto Mondesi may have missed a month of the season with a separated shoulder, but that hasn't stopped him from achieving one speed-based milestone for the organization. Mondesi smacked his 10th triple of the season on Monday night, becoming the first Royals player with double-digit triples in 16 years. The feat was last accomplished by Carlos Beltran in 2003. The injury certainly hindered Mondesi's season-long performance, but he's still going to finish the year with about 10 home runs, 10 triples, and 40 stolen bases while hitting around .270. That's an impressive year in just about every league, and fantasy owners should be drooling about his potential from here. He's still only 23 years old.
