KANSAS CITY -- Royals rookie Jorge Bonifacio was in the lineup again on Tuesday night, meaning he has started 12 straight games, eight of those in right field, including the last six in a row there.
While it seems clear that Bonifacio has moved ahead of Jorge Soler on the depth chart in right field for now, manager Ned Yost isn't going to make any such proclamation. Instead, Yost engaged in a playful cat-and-mouse game with the subject on Tuesday.
Is Bonifacio your new starting right fielder?
"He's playing there today."
So, he's your new right fielder?
