Luis Robert Jr. Hitting Seventh on Sunday
Luis Robert Jr. has been dropped to seventh in the batting order for Sunday's series finale against the Baltimore Orioles and right-hander Charlie Morton at Camden Yards. Robert has struggled offensively for most of the season thus far other than his league-leading 21 stolen bases. The 27-year-old Cuban slugger recently returned from a two-game absence due to knee soreness and has gone hitless in eight at-bats with six strikeouts in two games since returning. Overall, his slash line leaves a lot to be desired at .182/.269/.294 while adding five home runs, 20 RBI and 24 runs scored in 53 games played. It's been bad news for Robert, who is in one of the worst lineups in baseball. Fantasy managers may want to keep him sidelined until he shows signs of breaking out of his funk. Robert has gone hitless in six career at-bats against Morton.
