Whit Merrifield Homers, Steals A Base On Friday
4 years agoKansas City Royals second baseman Whit Merrifield helped lead the team to a 14-5 victory over the Minnesota Twins on Friday. Merrifield went 2-for-4 with a home run, a stolen base, two runs and three RBI. He is now slashing .264/.322/.396 with five home runs and an MLB-leading 17 stolen bases on the year. Merrifield's home run on Friday was his first since May 3, despite playing nearly every day over the past month. Fantasy managers should expect some better power numbers soon, but the ample stolen bases have more than made up for his lack of power so far.
