Alcides Escobar Steals Third Base Of 2018
7 years agoKansas City Royals shortstop Alcides Escobar was moving on the basepaths on Monday as he notched his third steal of the season, this time against the Angels. The 31-year-old is having another forgettable season at the plate, hitting .236 with two home runs and three stolen bases. He’s walking more than normal, but at just 5.2 percent, it’s still not enough to make much of a dent in his terrible on-base percentage of just .286. Manager Ned Yost’s dedication to his veterans means Esky is almost assuredly going to continue to hang on to the starting job all year no matter how bad he hits, but he should only be owned in extremely deep fantasy leagues.
