Mariners' Abraham Toro: On base four times Monday
Toro went 2-for-3 with a run-scoring infield single, an RBI double and two walks in a win over the Padres on Monday.
Toro's busy day on the basepaths extended what has been a strong stretch at the plate for the 25-year-old, who now boasts a .333 average and .922 OPS over the 30 plate appearances he's logged in his last eight games. The 25-year-old has an impressively modest 16.0 percent strikeout rate on the campaign, but an atypically low .192 BABIP has certainly played a part in his ugly .187/.236/.338 season line. Toro has started each of the past seven contests and should have a lock on a near-everyday role while Jesse Winker serves the final five games of his suspension and while Kyle Lewis (concussion) remains on the 7-day injured list.
