Alcides Escobar finished 2-for-4 with a double, two RBIs and scored a run as the Royals continue their hot streak in beating the Twins 6-2 on Sunday. The Royals have now won 15 of 21 games to move a game above .500.
Fantasy Impact
Escobar had a great series against the Twins. He went 7-for-16 with four extra-base hits, including a home run, with seven RBIs and scored four runs in the series. He has raised his batting average 50 points since June 13 from .180 to .230. Escobar maybe someone to start in daily leagues while he is on his hot streak. Although I would not believe that this will last, so I keep him out of my lineups in seasonal leagues.
