MJ Melendez went 3-for-4 in the Royals' narrow 2-1 win over the Angels.
Fantasy Impact
Despite not contributing to the runs or RBIs, Melendez's performance was a bright spot in a tightly contested game. This outing could be a sign of turning things around for Melendez, who has been struggling with a batting average of just .202 over 35 games this season. His ability to hit safely three times in one game might help boost his confidence and potentially kickstart a more consistent hitting streak. However, fantasy managers should remain cautious, as his season-long metrics, including a low .278 wOBA and .244 BABIP, suggest that he still has significant room for improvement.
