The 25-year-old hit .333 with 4 doubles, 2 home runs and 8 RBI between July 31 and August 9. However, that was before he laid a goose egg this past week. On the season, Montero is hitting a modest .232.
Montero is getting plenty of opportunities in the Mariners’ lineup, and hopefully he rediscovers his stroke this week.
