Ben Gamel Keeps Hitting Streak Alive In Loss Monday Night
3 years agoPittsburgh Pirates outfielder Ben Gamel extended his hitting streak to five games on Monday night, as he finished 1-for-3 with a double in a 4-2 loss to the Diamondbacks. Gamel went on a tear recently, where he was slashing .333/.433/.647 with four homers, eight RBI and 11 runs scored over his last 15 games. However he's since cooled off over his last seven games, where he's now slashing .250/.379/.333 with two runs scored. It's possible that his hot stretch was just a flash in the pan, but he should still have enough value to warrant being rostered in deeper mixed leagues and NL-only formats.
