  • Tigers' Kevin McGonigle: Tees off in win

    McGonigle went 2-for-6 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Monday's 8-5 win over the Pirates.

    McGonigle snapped a mini 0-for-7 slump over his last two games with a solid performance that included his 13th home run of the season. Three of those long balls have come in 14 contests this month, and the youngster has been showing more power overall as the year has gone along, as he had just three homers through the end of May. McGonigle has had a great debut campaign so far and seems well on his way to winning the AL Rookie of the Year award.

In July, McGonigle has gone 14-for-51 (.275) with three homers and five RBI over 13 games.

  • Tigers' Kevin McGonigle: Doubles, scores twice in win

    McGonigle went 2-for-5 with a double and two runs scored in Saturday's 7-0 win over the Angels.

The rookie infielder now has a .389 OBP, which is good for ninth in the majors. McGonigle also has 60 walks versus only 59 strikeouts through 95 games, and his good eye at the plate along with his strong contact skills should make the 21-year-old a fairly reliable fantasy option the rest of the way.
