Pops second homer Lux went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Friday's 7-2 loss to the Giants.

Impact Fresh off a four-hit game Thursday, Lux stayed locked in with his second homer of the year Friday. He last left the yard April 13, so it was an extended power drought that ended in this contest. The 24-year-old has done well with a contact-oriented approach, slashing .291/.372/.382 with two homers, 14 RBI, 33 runs scored, five stolen base, seven doubles and a triple in 52 contests this year. Lux's place in the lineup is fairly secure versus right-handed pitchers, and he's also found some playing time against lefties in 2022 without much deviation in his ratio stats.

Reaches base five times Thursday Lux went 4-for-4 with a double, a walk, two runs and an RBI in Thursday's 11-9 win over the White Sox.

Impact Lux notched the first four-hit game of his career, and he added a walk to become the first Dodger to reach base five times in a game this season, per independent baseball writer Blake Harris. The second baseman could have had an even more impressive fantasy line, but he was thrown out trying to steal in the third inning. Nonetheless, it was a nice turnaround for Lux after he had gone 2-for-15 with four strikeouts over his previous five games.

Notches another theft Lux went 1-for-2 with a walk and a stolen base Tuesday in a loss to the White Sox.

Impact Lux and Trea Turner were the only Dodgers to reach base more than once in the contest, and they both collected a stolen base. The theft was Lux's fifth of the season, with three coming in his past seven games. Continuing to take advantage of his 93rd-percentile sprint speed on the basepaths would boost Lux's fantasy profile considerably, as he's currently slashing a modest .265/.350/.335 with only one home run and 12 RBI.

Atones for error with walk-off hit Lux went 1-for-3 with a double, a run, a walk and two RBI in a 5-4 win over Philadelphia on Sunday.

Impact Lux's poor defense looked like it would cost the Dodgers a win throughout most of the contest, as his second-inning error resulted in four Phillies unearned runs. However, the infielder made up for the miscue in the bottom of the ninth inning, smacking a two-out double that plated the winning runs for Los Angeles. It was the first time Lux has knocked in any runs since May 4, as his chances have been limited by batting at the bottom of the order.
