Kepler went 2-for-3 with two doubles, two walks and three runs Sunday in the Twins' 5-4 win over the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Kepler had delivered a lowly .548 OPS over his first 26 games since the All-Star break before he broke out of his prolonged funk Saturday with a solo home run and a pair of walks. The 28-year-old then closed the weekend with another solid box-score line, rewarding the faith of fantasy managers that stuck with him amid his prolonged offensive drought. The .855 OPS that Kepler turned in during the 2019 campaign is beginning to look like the outlier for his career; his OPS has hovered between .730 and .760 in each of his other five full seasons in the majors.
