Reaches base six times in win Kwan went 5-for-5 with a double and four runs Sunday in the Guardians' 17-3 win over the Royals. Impact After hitting .469 in Cactus League play to earn a spot on the Guardians' Opening Day roster, Kwan has continued to keep raking in his first three big-league games. He was also hit by a pitch in Sunday's game, allowing him to reach base an incredible 12 times in his first 14 plate appearances. Kwan's on-base and contact-hitting skills are legitimate -- he posted strikeout rates below 11 percent at all three of his full-season stops in the minors -- but a lack of power and speed will cap his overall fantasy ceiling. That said, Kwan projects as an excellent source of batting average and runs, making him an ideal pickup in leagues where he's available for fantasy managers in need of help in those categories.
