Zack Short Continues To Get On Base
3 years agoDetroit Tigers shortstop Zack Short has continued to produce as a member of the Major League club. Since being recalled by the Tigers on June 26, Short has hit .240 with a .364 on-base percentage in 33 plate appearances while also adding a pair of home runs and seven RBI. The batting average isn't ideal, but Short has some upside in leagues where on-base percentage is part of the scoring. He already has a 22.4% walk rate in 49 plate appearances with Detroit this year and routinely registered double-digit walk rates in the minors. The Tigers don't really have a set starter at shortstop and could trade fellow infielder Jonathan Schoop in the coming weeks, so Short is someone to keep an eye on as a potential stash candidate in deeper leagues.
