The 26-year-old struggled mightily in a small sample in 2023, going 4-for-53 (.075) with zero homers and three steals across 56 plate appearances.

Nate Eaton went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts and a stolen base in Kansas City’s 4-0 loss to the Rangers on Monday.
Fantasy Impact
Eaton collected his second stolen base of the season on Monday in a losing effort. Eaton reached on an error and is 1-for-22 (.045) this season. Fantasy managers can look elsewhere as Eaton currently carries no fantasy relevance, especially on an anemic offense like the Royals.
Nate Eaton went 4-for-5 with a double, a triple, two RBI, a run scored, and a stolen base in Kansas City’s 12-2 win over the Tigers on Saturday.
Fantasy Impact
Eaton collected a career-high four hits on Saturday including his second career triple in the 9th inning off of Kody Clemens. Eaton also stole his third base of the season. Eaton is slashing .245/.304/.429 with one home run, five RBI, six runs scored, and three stolen bases in 49 at-bats this season. Eaton’s sample size is so small and his playing time is sporadic making him best utilized in DFS formats as a low-cost flier for the time being.
