Rhys Hoskins's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Rhys Hoskins made his only hit count in Monday's 6-3 win over the Rangers, going 1-for-4 with a grand slam and two strikeouts. Hoskins came to the plate in the bottom of the sixth inning down by two with the bases loaded and no outs, ambushing a Jacob Latz fastball deep into the left-field seats. Despite the blast, the 31-year-old has hit for less average and power than usual, slashing .224/.316/.423 with 11 HR, 23 runs scored, and 35 RBI in 232 plate appearances. The good news is that he has picked things up a bit lately and now has a six-game hitting streak. Hopefully, he will be able to continue this for fantasy managers.

Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Rhys Hoskins is not in Sunday's lineup as the Brewers look to avoid a four-game sweep at the hands of the San Diego Padres. Hoskins has started the past six games and will cede first base duties to 23-year-old Tyler Black, who will bat second. Hoskins has posted a modest .223/.317/.411 slash line through his first 56 games in Milwaukee with 10 home runs and two stolen bases. However, he holds a strong 13.4% barrel rate, which suggests he should see an increase in home runs during the summer. Black recently rejoined the major league roster on June 19 and has posted a .226/.294/.290 line through 10 games this season. He has a difficult matchup ahead of him this afternoon in San Diego right-hander Michael King, who has posted a stellar 1.69 ERA, 1.16 WHIP, and 9:34 BB:K ratio in his past five starts.

Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Rhys Hoskins made his return to Philadelphia in Monday's loss to the Phillies, hitting his 10th home run of the season in the defeat. Hoskins blasted a solo homer to left-center field, cutting the Brewers' deficit to 3-1 in the seventh inning, and he also added his second stolen base of the campaign on Monday. The 31-year-old slugger has been a great source of power when healthy for the Brewers this year, slashing .243/.345/.486 with 10 long balls, five doubles, and 28 RBI across 168 plate appearances (41 games) while splitting time at first base and designated hitter. Fantasy managers should continue riding with Hoskins, who has now gone 8-for-21 with two big flies and seven RBI since returning from the injured list.
