Lopez went 2-for-3 with a triple, two runs scored and a walk Tuesday against the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
Lopez led off for the third straight contest and has tallied at least one hit on each occasion while scoring three runs. He has just a .049 ISO across 320 plate appearances for the season, though he has only a 14.7 percent strikeout rate and a 7.7 percent walk rate. If Lopez sticks as the leadoff hitter, he could be a decent source of runs for the final two months of the campaign.

Lopez is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
The lefty-hitting Lopez will take a seat against Royals right-hander Michael Wacha in the White Sox's first game out of the All-Star break. With the White Sox calling up prospect Brooks Baldwin from Triple-A Charlotte and installing him as the starter at second base Friday in his MLB debut, Lopez's time as a regular in the infield could be over. Lopez went hitless over his final three starts before the All-Star break, bringing his season-long batting line down to a dismal .240/.297/.287 over 285 plate appearances.

Lopez went 2-for-3 with a double, two RBI, a run scored and a stolen base Monday against the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Lopez has just a .607 OPS for the season, but he's in the midst of a very productive stretch. Across his last 15 games dating back to June 22, he's gone 15-for-43 with nine RBI, six runs scored and two stolen bases. Lopez is still hitting in the bottom third of the order and sitting against lefties, limiting his overall value.
