Mitch Moreland Batting .096 Over Past Eight Games
6 years agoBoston Red Sox first baseman Mitch Moreland has come crashing back down to earth. Moreland endured a sizzling hot streak after Hanley Ramirez was released by the Red Sox, but the past week has been a struggle for the 32-year-old. Moreland is just 3-for-31 in his last eight games with only a single RBI. Moreland is still locked into the clean-up spot in the batting order, so he should continue to see opportunities to pile up counting stats. He has a .273 average to go along with 10 home runs and 31 RBI on the year. Monitor his place in the lineup. As long as he continues to bat in the top half, he is worth a roster spot.
