Grossman went 2-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Tuesday's win over the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
The double was Grossman's 21st of the season, which puts him six behind the career-high 27 doubles he recorded back in 2018. While he'll have to finish with a flourish over the last 10 games to reach that mark, the 32-year-old outfielder has already had a nice campaign with 23 home runs and 18 stolen bases, which are both new career bests. His previous career highs in those categories were 11 and nine, respectively, so the production has been a pleasant surprise.

Grossman went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's loss to the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Grossman homered in the ninth inning with the Tigers down 7-1, giving him 23 long balls this season. By comparison, the veteran outfielder had 19 total home runs the past three years combined. He also has 17 stolen bases this season, and the new career bests in home runs and steals have given Grossman more fantasy value than many would have expected coming into 2021.

Grossman went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's loss to the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Grossman started the scoring for the Tigers in the first inning with his 20th home run of the season. That's more longballs than the veteran outfielder hit in the last three seasons combined, and he's reached double figures in home runs for just the second time in his MLB career. Grossman also has 15 stolen bases this season, making him a solid fantasy option despite his .238 batting average.

Grossman is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Grossman will take a seat for the first time since Aug. 6 while the Tigers roll out a starting outfield of Akil Baddoo, Derek Hill and Victor Reyes from left to right. During that streak of 19 consecutive starts, Grossman slashed .240/.313/.387 with two home runs and three stolen bases.

Grossman went 1-for-4 with a walk and a solo home run in Tuesday's win over the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
Grossman's third inning home run gave him 19 for the season. The veteran outfielder had previously never surpassed 11 long balls in a season, and he's actually finished in single digits in each of the last four years. The power surge, combined with a career-high 15 stolen bases, has given Grossman decent fantasy value this season despite a middling .238 batting average.

Grossman went 1-for-4 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Friday's 4-1 extra-inning win over Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
The 31-year-old notched his 15th steal of the season in the contest, extending his career high. Grossman also contributed the last of Detroit's three runs after walking in the 10th inning. The outfielder has gone 18-for-56 (.321) through 17 games in August. He's lifted his season slash line to .240/.361/.423 with 18 home runs, 56 RBI, 66 runs scored, three triples and 17 doubles in 512 plate appearances.
