Hunter Dozier Pushing For Tuesday Return
5 years agoKansas City Royals third baseman Hunter Dozier (oblique) took swings off a tee on Saturday and is pushing to make his return from the injured list on Tuesday. “Feeling good,” Dozier said. “Heading in the right direction.” Dozier will be returning to a fine .314/.398/.589 slash line, and he's second on the team in home runs behind Jorge Soler with 11. Cheslor Cuthbert has been hitting well (.357 with three homers in 28 at-bats) in Dozier's absence at third base, but he'll likely be sent back down when Dozier is activated. Dozier's breakout season so far should've earned him a roster spot in most fantasy leagues in 2019.
