Santana hit his first home run, a leadoff blast, and stole a base in Tuesday's loss to the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

Santana's poor .298 on-base percentage continues to restrict him, and that's unlikely to change anytime soon, as he has just a 3.5 percent walk rate in 203 career games. But his batting average is up to a solid .283, and he now has four stolen bases in seven opportunities. He's going to be running whenever he's on base, now he just has to get on enough to make his speed count. Don't expect the power to be a regular bonus -- it was Santana's first since August 31, 2014.
