Nicky Lopez Has Another Multi-Hit Game
5 years agoKansas City Royals rookie second baseman Nicky Lopez seems to be getting his feet under him against major league pitching. On Thursday, Lopez hit safely for the fifth game in his last six, and it was his third multi-hit game in a row. Lopez got off to a slow start to his career, but he's picked it up recently, hitting .355 over the last week with the first home run of his career. Lopez is mostly a glove-first type of player, but he's got a bit of speed and a good eye. If he can continue to develop his eye at the major league level, he could hit for a high average with a handful of stolen bases, perfect for lots of deep leagues.
