Gonzalez went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run against the Royals in Monday's 9-5 victory.

Gonzalez entered the contest in the seventh inning as a pinch hitter for Dominic Smith and promptly smashed a 452-foot, two-run homer to center field. It was his second long ball in his past four contests after he had gone deep just once over his first 98 at-bats this season. Gonzalez's overall slash line of .283/.336/.453 is pretty solid, but he doesn't see the field often enough to be a viable fantasy asset in most formats -- he plays almost exclusively against left-handed pitchers and has started just once over Boston's past seven contests.
