Lucroy went 2-for-4 with an RBI infield single, a walk and a run in a win over the Blue Jays on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran catcher's successful May continued Sunday with his fourth multi-hit effort of the month. Lucroy is hitting an impressive .302 overall since the calendar flipped pushing his season average up 25 points to .281 in the process. The only surprisingly missing element from Lucroy's production thus far is the long ball, a particularly unusual development considering he's squaring up on the ball to the tune of a career-best 37.8 percent hard contact rate.

Lucroy went 2-for-4 with a run in a loss to the Yankees on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Lucroy rapped out a pair of singles to churn out his third multi-hit tally over the last seven games, bringing his May average to a blistering .367 in the process. The veteran backstop has generated a solid .295/.362/.390 line across 117 plate appearances overall, but he's surprisingly yet to go deep. That's led to a career-low .095 ISO, a particularly confounding figure when considering that Lucroy also sports a career-best 41.8 percent hard contact rate.

Lucroy went 2-for-3 with an RBI double and a walk in a loss to the Astros on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Lucroy once again served as a bright spot near the bottom of the order, and he closed out the scoring on the night with his run-scoring two-bagger. The veteran backstop has been lauded thus far for his work behind the dish with the Athletics staff, but he's become a solid offensive contributor as well. Factoring in Monday's production, Lucroy is hitting .421 (8-for-19) with five doubles, Monday's RBI, two walks and two runs over his first six games of May.
