Whit Merrifield Carries Over His Hitting
6 years agoKansas City Royals utility man Whit Merrifield has become a hit machine. While the 2019 season is only five games in, Merrifield is working on a 25-game hit streak dating back to last year. Merrifield is only hitting .238 so far this season, but he's got the hit streak going and has already racked up five runs scored, three RBI, and two stolen bases. Merrifield can provide a lot of one-man production, but the lineup behind him could potentially be surprisingly explosive if Adalberto Mondesi and Jorge Soler pan out. Merrifield could be a surprise top performer before the year's out. For now, he'll take his multi-season hit streak out to face the Tigers the rest of this week.
