Homers again Tuesday Moniak went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run in Tuesday's 9-7 extra-innings loss to the Rays.

For the season, he's batting .278 with an .892 OPS, 19 homers, 52 RBI, 40 runs scored, 13 doubles, four triples and a stolen base over 76 contests. Moniak remains in a strong-side platoon role, but he's got some stability in a favorable hitting environment, which makes him an acceptable depth option in fantasy.
