Eduardo Escobar Hits Third Homer In Last 15 Games
4 years agoArizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eduardo Escobar launched a pinch-hit home run for his only hit in a 3-2 loss to the Brewers on Wednesday evening. It was his 16th homer of the season and the third over his last 15 games, as he is now slashing .231/.271/.481 with seven RBI and six runs scored over that span. This has been a bounce-back season for Escobar, who is now slashing .242/.290/.466 over 72 games this year. He continues to be a good play in deeper mixed leagues and NL-only formats, and he is currently at the middle of some trade rumors, so it's possible he could get a boost in value depending on where he lands.
