Cuthbert went 2-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Sunday's loss to the Indians.

EDGE Analysis

Cuthbert kicked off the scoring in this one with an RBI double to left field in the first inning, and he cut the deficit to two in the eighth with a single to center. Through 42 games this season, he's slashing .298/.331/.460 with six home runs and 25 RBI.

Cuthbert went 3-for-5 with a double and solo home run Thursday against the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Cuthbert kicked off his productive afternoon with a double in the first inning and followed that up with a solo home run in the third frame. The long ball was Cuthbert's sixth of the season and second since the All-Star break. He continues to get regular playing time at first base and has quietly put together a solid .298/.325/.464 line across 157 plate appearances.

Cuthbert is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

Cuthbert will sit for the first time in four games while Lucas Duda receives the starting nod at first base. Since joining the big club in late May, Cuthbert is slashing .286/.312.444 with five home runs in 34 games. He should continue to stick ahead of Duda on the depth chart.

Cuthbert is not in the starting lineup Saturday against the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

Cuthbert will take a seat for the second time in the last four games despite recording a multi-hit game Thursday. Lucas Duda, who is hitting just .165/.255/.306 across 98 plate appearances this season, will start in his place and bat sixth.

Cuthbert is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against Cleveland.

EDGE Analysis

Cuthbert had started 18 of the last 19 games but recorded an unimpressive .654 OPS over that stretch. Lucas Duda starts at first base in his absence.

Cuthbert went 3-for-4 with a double, a home run, two runs scored and four RBI in Friday's 8-7 loss to the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

His three-run shot in the fifth inning off Martin Perez gave the Royals a 6-3 lead, but the bullpen couldn't make it stick. It remains to be seen how much playing time Cuthbert will get now that Hunter Dozier is back in the fold -- Cuthbert got the start at first base Friday with Minnesota sending a lefty to the mound -- but his .307/.333/.520 slash line with four homers and 15 RBI in 19 games since his promotion would suggest he deserves more than just a platoon role.

Cuthbert is not starting Wednesday against Detroit.

EDGE Analysis

Cuthbert started 10 games in a row after his contract was purchased May 31. He's made a good impression, hitting .324/.375/.595 with three homers, far better than the career .252/.303/.378 mark he owned prior to this season. Kelvin Gutierrez gets the start at the hot corner.

Cuthbert went 2-for-5 with a solo home run Thursday against the Red Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Cuthbert took Ryan Weber deep in the second inning, recording his third home run of the season. Since being recalled on May 31, he's proven productive, hitting .375 and slugging .750 across 24 plate appearances. However, Cuthbert's career .131 ISO suggests that it'd be wise to limit expectations, though he is drawing consistent at-bats batting primarily sixth in the Royals' lineup.

Cuthbert went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and an RBI groundout in Tuesday's 8-3 loss to the Red Sox.

EDGE Analysis

He took Eduardo Rodriguez deep in the second inning for a two-run shot to give the Royals an early lead, then brought home a meaningless run in the ninth with a grounder to shortstop. Cuthbert's been on a tear since his promotion, going 6-for-16 (.375) with two homers. However, he's also struck out seven times in that stretch and carries a lackluster .254/.304/.386 career slash line.

Cuthbert went 3-for-4 in Sunday's 5-1 loss to Texas.

EDGE Analysis

Cuthbert collected three singles -- two of which were of the infield variety -- but couldn't help the Royals' offense score runs. He's gone 5-for-12 but has struck out six times since being called up Friday. Once Hunter Dozier (side) is healthy, Cuthbert should ride the bench on a near regular basis.
