7 years agoSan Diego Padres outfielder Manuel Margot went 2-for-3 with two RBI Friday against the San Francisco Giants. Margot roped his 15th double of the season and chipped in his 19th run. The 23-year-old center fielder is slashing .357/.429/.500 in June, raising his average to a season-high .245. Margot endured a terrible start to the year but is growing more comfortable with his in-season adjustments at the plate. Unfortunately for his fantasy prospects, Margot has dropped to the bottom of the Padres order, so he's accumulated paltry counting stats. He also has only one home run and is 6-for-11 in stolen base attempts. It's possible the Friars will bump him back to the leadoff spot soon if he stays hot. His fantasy stock is certainly trending up.--Andrew Le - RotoBaller
