Pillar went 2-for-4 with a RBI in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Rays. Pillar now has a hit in seven of the team's eight games with two multi-hit games under his belt already this season. His .290/.290/.452 slash line has been one of the surprises of the season for the team as his average is second among qualifying players and he leads qualifying players in slugging percentage on the team. It will be interesting to see how his playing time is impacted by the return of Michael Saunders, who is currently recovering from a knee injury, but Pillar has staked his claim to as many at bats as the team can find for him.
