Gabriel Moreno Rattles Off Three Hits In Win On Friday
5 months agoArizona Diamondbacks catcher Gabriel Moreno rattled off three hits on Friday, all against Cubs starter Justin Steele, in Arizona's 5-2 win over the Chicago Cubs. Moreno had two singles and a double on top of recording two runs and an RBI. It was the 24-year-old's third three hit game of July as he increased his OPS to .710 on the season. Moreno has had a solid July at the plate, a great sign after a slow start to the season. His .931 OPS in July greatly outpaces his .580 OPS in May and his .730 OPS in June. With a .309 wOBA and a .320 xwOBA, Moreno should see more positive regression coming his way. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues looking for help at the catcher spot may want to look his way. He should get his next shot in the lineup Saturday against Cubs scheduled started Kyle Hendricks.
