Delivers with RISP
Watson went 1-for-3 with a double and an RBI in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Mariners.
Analyse
Watson's fourth-inning double with runners at first and third base produced Cleveland's first run and extended his RBI streak to five games (7-for-16, eight RBI). In a small sample, the 23-year-old is 4-for-6 with runners in scoring position. Watson and fellow rookie Cooper Ingle are providing a boost to an offense that ranks 28th in runs and OPS.

RBI streak reaches four games
Watson went 1-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Mariners.
Analyse
Watson gave the Guardians an early lead with a first-inning, run-scoring double. It was the fourth consecutive game with an RBI for the rookie, who has gone 6-for-13 with a home run and seven RBI during that stretch. That production could be raising Watson's profile in the lineup; he batted cleanup Friday, the highest spot in the order in his seven starts in Cleveland.

Sparks offense in win
Watson went 2-for-4 with three RBI in Wednesday's 4-3 extra-inning win over the White Sox.
Analyse
Watson singled in two runs in the sixth inning and then produced the game-winning tally in the top of the 10th. The rookie found a groove against MLB pitching during this three-game set in Chicago. He recorded his first career hit and first career home run while driving six of 10 runs the Guardians scored in the series. After striking out eight times in his first 12 at-bats, Watson has fanned just once over the next nine. With Chase DeLauter (ribs) and Angel Martinez (foot) on the injured list, Watson should receive significant playing time in the short term.

Crushes first MLB home run
Watson went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the White Sox.
Analyse
One day after collecting his first major-league hit, Watson reached another milestone by belting his first career MLB home run Tuesday. The solo shot came off Sean Burke in the fifth inning and accounted for Cleveland's only run of the night. It was an encouraging performance for the 23-year-old, who has had a slow start to his big-league career. Through his first six games in the majors, Watson is batting 3-for-17 (.176) with nine strikeouts.

Hitting bench against lefty
Watson is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the White Sox.
Analyse
Southpaw Anthony Kay is on the bump for the White Sox, so Watson will retreat to the bench along with fellow left-handed batters Daniel Schneemann and Steven Kwan. Since being called up from Triple-A Columbus last Wednesday, Watson has gone 0-for-12 with eight strikeouts while drawing starts in four of six games.
