Hunter Dozier Back In Lineup On Tuesday
4 years agoKansas City Royals third baseman Hunter Dozier (thumb) was removed from Sunday's game due to a lingering thumb injury. The injury forced him to sit out Monday's game, but he is back in the lineup on Tuesday, batting seventh against Dylan Bundy and the Los Angeles Angels. Dozier is hitless through 13 at-bats this year. He's coming off a disappointing 2020 season, but he was fantastic in 2019, slashing .279/.348/.522 with 26 home runs and 84 RBI over 139 games. There's certainly upside for Dozier, especially in what looks like an improved Royals offense. However, he can be left on waivers in most leagues until we start to see him perform like his 2019 self.
