2 Jean Segura SS

Segura went 2-for-4 with a solo home run Saturday against the Rockies.

Segura launched a home run -- his seventh of the season -- in the fifth inning off left-hander Kyle Freeland. It was his first home run and only fourth extra-base hit since June 15. Still, Segura has maintained an excellent .333 batting average and ranks among the top-10 in the American League in runs scored and stolen bases.

Segura went 2-for-4 with an RBI single and a run in a win over the Royals on Friday.

The 28-year-old now has three multi-hit efforts over the last four games, just the latest stretch of offensive success for a player who boasts a career-best .338/.366/.479 line over 342 plate appearances. Segura has now also matched his RBI total from last season, but he's accomplished the feat in 223 fewer opportunities. Given Dee Gordon's success as a leadoff man in front of him in the order, Segura figures to continue enjoying a fair share of run-producing opportunities out of the No. 2 spot in the lineup while also getting on base himself at an above-average clip.

Segura went 2-for-5 with two doubles, a walk and three runs in an extra-innings win over the Orioles on Wednesday.

Segura cashed in on all three occasions in which he was on base, including in the 11th inning, when he crossed the plate with what turned out to be the winning run. There seems to be no stopping the hot-hitting shortstop, who's returned from a four-game absence due to a forearm infection to go 5-for-12 with Wednesday's pair of doubles, three walks and four runs over the subsequent three contests.

Segura went 3-for-4 with a run scored and was caught stealing during Tuesday's 3-2 win over in Baltimore.

Segura put forth yet another multi-hit effort Tuesday, his major-league leading 33rd such performance this season. The 28-year-old has a .337/.364/.479 slash line with six home runs, 53 runs, 44 RBI and 14 stolen bases in 303 at-bats in 2018.

Segura returned from a four-game absence due to a forearm infection Monday and drew a pair of walks over five plate appearances. He has 32 multi-hit efforts in 2018 and leads the majors with 14 three-plus-hit games, Jeff Seidel of MLB.com reports.

Segura couldn't add to his tally Monday, but he boasts 20 multi-hit efforts in his last 38 games alone. The star shortstop was deemed ready to go by manager Scott Servais after breezing through his pregame work without any issues Monday, with his return naturally a welcome sight considering the pivotal role he plays near the top of the order. Segura's current .331 average is a career best, while both his .359 on-base percentage and .475 slugging percentage are the second-best figures of his career.
