Alex Kirilloff Plates A Run Wednesday
3 years agoMinnesota Twins outfielder/first baseman Alex Kirilloff went 1-for-4 with an RBI in Wednesday's win over the Seattle Mariners. Kirilloff ripped a 107.1 MPH single in the first inning, then later collected an RBI on a groundout. The talented prospect is hitting the ball on the screws, though his low launch angle and 26.5 percent fly-ball rate are limiting his power potential at the moment. Kirilloff makes for a good buy-low candidate, as fantasy managers who roster him may be frustrated with the lack of production and give up on him before his actual numbers resemble his expected ones. He ranks in the top-10 in both expected batting average and slugging percentage.
