Xander Bogaerts Seeing The Ball Well Lately
1 year agoSan Diego Padres shortstop Xander Bogaerts has five hits (two home runs) in six at-bats in his last two games, and he's also hitting .310 (13-for-42) with three home runs, two doubles, 10 RBI and eight runs scored in his last 11 games dating back to June 23. The 30-year-old already has more long balls (two) in four games in July than he did in all of June, so fantasy managers are certainly hoping he can keep this up for the rest of July after next week's All-Star break. In his first year in San Diego, Bogaerts is hitting .263 (79-for-300) overall with 10 home runs, 14 doubles, 34 RBI, nine stolen bases and 44 runs scored in 342 plate appearances over 80 games. The four-time All-Star remains a must-start at a premium fantasy position.
