Chris Taylor Continues To Ascend With Three More Hits
4 years agoLos Angeles Dodgers infielder/outfielder Chris Taylor ended May on a high note by going 3-for-4 with two runs and four RBI in Monday's victory. He also hit his seventh home run of the year off of starting pitcher Jack Flaherty in the bottom of the second inning. Taylor has been playing all over for the Dodgers and continues to impress at the plate. After hitting .250 in April, Taylor stepped it up in May with a .310 batting average to go along with three home runs, 15 RBI and four stolen bases. Even with the Dodgers getting outfielder Cody Bellinger and infielder/outfielder Zach McKinstry back this past weekend, Taylor has performed good enough for an everyday role. Taylor is now hitting .280 with seven home runs, 28 RBI and six stolen bases and should be rostered and started in all formats. It also doesn't hurt that Taylor is eligible at multiple positions. The versatile Taylor will look to keep it going in June and he will start that journey on Tuesday versus John Gant.
