Royals' bats awaken in 8-4 win over Blue Jays to avoid sweep

MJ Melendez and Emmanuel Rivera drove in two runs apiece, leading Brady Singer and the Kansas City Royals over the Toronto Blue Jays 8-4 to end a three-game losing streak
JUNE 8, 2022 • Associated Press
Managing side issue Manager Mike Matheny said Wednesday that Dozier is out of the lineup for a second consecutive game since he's dealing with "something in his side," Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.
Impact Dozier has been in a slump recently, but his recent absences from the lineup stem from a side issue that surfaced during an at-bat Monday. He'll get more tests and rest before the Royals determine his next steps. If Dozier misses additional time, Carlos Santana and Ryan O'Hearn should see more playing time at first base.

Remains out of lineup Dozier isn't starting Wednesday's game against Toronto.
Impact Dozier went 1-for-18 with two RBI, a walk and seven strikeouts over his last five games, and he'll remain out of the lineup for a second consecutive game. Carlos Santana will start at first base and bat sixth.
JUNE 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Sitting amid slump Dozier is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Blue Jays, Joel Goldberg of Bally Sports Kansas City reports.
Impact Dozier will take a seat after going 1-for-18 with seven strikeouts over his last five games. Though Carlos Santana is getting the nod at first base Tuesday in favor of Dozier, he's expected to serve as more of a part-time starter moving forward while the 17-36 Royals prioritize the development of younger players.

MAY 14, 2022 • Associated Press
Five hits in win Dozier went 5-for-5 with a double, an RBI and four runs scored in Friday's 14-10 win over the Rockies.
Impact Dozier enjoyed the series opener in Colorado, turning in his best game of the year at the dish. The impressive showing at the plate lifted his batting average 37 points from .240 to .277, and it was a good bounce-back effort after going 0-for-7 in his last two contests. The 30-year-old has added a .789 OPS with three home runs, eight RBI, 14 runs scored, six doubles, two triples and a stolen base through 28 games overall.

Notches steal Thursday Dozier went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Thursday's 3-1 loss to the Rangers.
Impact The Royals' offense struggled to get much going with no extra-base hits in the contest. The steal was Dozier's first of the season in his second attempt. He's never stolen more than five bases or made nine attempts in a campaign. The utility man is hitting .233 with one RBI, four runs scored, two doubles and a triple through 10 games in May.
MAY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Double, two runs in loss Dozier went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk and two runs scored in Tuesday's 6-4 loss to the Rangers.
Impact Dozier was the only Royal to reach base multiple times in this contest. It was also his second multi-hit effort in his last three games. The 30-year-old lifted his slash line to .258/.298/.461 with three home runs, seven RBI, 10 runs scored, five doubles and two triples in 25 contests. Injuries to Edward Olivares (quadriceps) and Carlos Santana (ankle) have opened up playing time for Dozier at both first base and in right field, so he should be a fairly regular presence in the lineup going forward.
