4 years agoMilwaukee Brewers outfielder Tyrone Taylor went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, three RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Marlins. Taylor excelled in the leadoff role, with manager Craig Counsell deciding to give Kolten Wong the day off. The 27-year-old went back-to-back with pitcher Adrian Houser in the second inning to give his team a 2-1 lead. He would later get his second RBI on a groundout in the fourth and then capped off his great night with an RBI single to right. Taylor now has consecutive multi-hit games for the first time in his young career and is slashing .474/.565/.895 with two home runs, seven RBI and two runs scored in 11 games as a fill-in for the injured Christian Yelich (back) and Lorenzo Cain (quadriceps). He's an intriguing player who can help a fantasy team while he's receiving regular playing time. His power and speed combination make him appealing in category leagues. He stole 89 bases in the minors and can be a solid contributor in the short term.--James Stokke
