Maikel Garcia Hits First Homer Since May
5 months agoKansas City Royals third baseman Maikel Garcia busted out of a big-time slump on Sunday, going 2-for-3 with a three-run homer in a 10-1 win over the Colorado Rockies. Garcia also walked, scored a run, and drove in three to round out a very nice day at the dish. Unfortunately, those have been few and far between lately for the 24-year-old, who has seen his OPS plummet from .739 on May 25 to .614 before today's game. He has also been dropped all the way to eighth in the Royals lineup, limiting his fantasy value. He still provides a lot of speed and some counting stats, but he is not a must-roster player anymore.
