Shin-Soo Choo Collects Three Hits And A Steal
4 years agoTexas Rangers outfielder Shin-Soo Choo batted leadoff on Saturday against the Colorado Rockies and led by example for his teammates. The lefty went 3-for-5 with a double, two RBI, and one stolen base. Choo led off the game with a double before plating a run in the third and the fifth innings with two singles. It was his third stolen base of the season, and, now, he is on pace for a 10 home run and 10 steal season. The 2018 All-Star has a .289 BABIP (lowest since 2016), and things should get better as this season rolls along. That is the icing on the cake for his fantasy managers because Choo already has a .785 OPS. Any improvement in the BABIP department will move the veteran from a fifth outfielder in roto leagues to a must start and possibly a trade asset heading into your league's trade deadline.
