Niko Goodrum Socks Two Homers Monday
6 years agoDetroit Tigers utility man Niko Goodrum has been the team's hottest hitter of late and Monday's performance only emphasized that point. The switch hitter clubbed two home runs to lead Detroit past Cleveland Monday, giving him three homers in the last seven days to go along with a .364/.391/.864 triple-slash line. He's seen a major uptick in playing time with the sheer number of injuries the Tigers have suffered, most notably at first base in the absence of Miguel Cabrera. That will change as guys get healthy, but for now if you have space in your lineup to ride a hot bat, Goodrum is worth the add.
