Where Does He Play? Evan Gattis is fresh off a season in which he hit 32 home runs and will be returning to the friendly confines of Minute Maid Park for 2017. So why does it seem like Gattis has

Yasmany Tomas Tomas hit his 30th home run of 2016 on Monday night, part of a 2-for-5 game in which he scored twice and knocked in five runs. Tomas now has 71 runs and 80 RBI in addition to his

Justin Upton It took him a while, but Upton has finally looked like the guy you were hoping for when you drafted him this season, and if you were able to make it into the playoffs of your league even

Felix Hernandez King Felix looked better Wednesday, going seven shutout innings, while only allowing four hits. Of course, because this is 2016, the statline wasn't all good, as he also walked three and only struck out four. I've been pumping

Brian Dozier Dozier continued his scorching hot second half, stealing a base and collecting two more RBI in the Twins win over the Tigers. The steal was Dozier's 15th of the season, giving him 56 combined HR+SB. Only Billy Hamilton

Gerrit Cole It was an unsuccessful return for Gerrit Cole on Monday, as he lasted just two innings, allowing five runs on four hits and four walks while striking out three. Cole had only missed a couple starts, and had

Kevin Kiermaier Kiermaier stayed red hot Thursday, going deep twice more, bringing his season total to 11 home runs, four of which have come in the last week. Kiermaier is now sporting a 12-game hit streak, with four steals during

Tim Anderson Tim Anderson left Thursday's game with a bruised right calf, but the injury doesn't sound too serious. Anderson has had himself a productive rookie season, hitting .282 with seven home runs and seven steals in 308 plate appearances.

Jedd Gyorko Gyorko has officially found his groove in St. Louis, something that took a little while, but many people thought might be coming. Gyorko went 2-for-4 with his 23rd home run of 2016 Monday, and is now slashing .249/.310/.505

Albert Pujols In case you don't have Prince Albert on your team, you might have missed the fact that he drove in his 100th run of the season Thursday night. While Pujols may not longer be the overall fantasy producer

Ervin Santana While the Twins have irrelevant for the majority of 2016, Santana has quietly put together quite a nice stretch of baseball in the past couple of months. Santana continued that success Sunday, going seven innings, allowing two runs

Sandy Leon Leon got the start at DH for the Tigers on Thursday, and answered the call, taking Matt Boyd deep in the fourth inning, Leon's lone hit of the day. Leon actually dropped his batting average with the 1-for-3

David Phelps Phelps did well in his third start of the season for Miami, getting the win in 5.1 innings of two-run ball. Phelps tallied eight strikeouts while allowing four hits and just one walk. Phelps moved from the bullpen

Rougned Odor Odor has had quite an interesting 2016. On the one hand, he has 22 home runs, 11 steals, 130 RuBIns, and a .281 batting average - it's been a breakout year, and he is still just 22 years

A.J. Ramos/Fernando Rodney Pick up Fernando Rodey right now if he's available in your league. A.J. Ramos was placed on the 15-day DL Tuesday, retroactive to August 6. Ramos was placed on the DL with a broken ring finger, which

Aaron Nola Nola returned to form Monday, going six shutout innings, while only allowing two hits and striking out five compared to just one walk. Nola was getting absolutely rocked in his five starts before the All-Star break, getting

Maikel Franco Franco stayed red hot with a home run in his fourth straight game. The long ball was Franco's lone hit of the day, but he scored twice in addition to the HR and RBI. Franco homered in

Travis Jankowski Expect Jankowski to be one of the hottest pick ups in the upcoming days, as he stole his fourth base of his last three games as part of a 2-for-5 effort with an RBI. Jankowski is owned

Aaron Sanchez Sanchez picked up his seventh win of the 2016 season, going six innings, allowing two runs on seven hits, while striking out six and walking two. The win improves Sanchez to 7-1 on the season, and he

Prince Fielder Fielder showed signs of life Thursday, hitting his fourth home run of the season, albeit in a 1-for-4 performance. Fielder has been one of the most disappointing players in fantasy baseball this season, and is still only

Aaron Sanchez Sanchez was dominant Tuesday night, but will likely be disappointed with the final outcome of his start, as he had allowed just one hit and one walk while striking out 12 through eight innings. However, the Jays

Rajai Davis Davis went 1-for-4 with a walk, and more importantly, a steal, in Cleveland's 5-4 win over Kansas City. Davis has been quite a valuable player in 2016, with five home runs and 12 steals, totals only he

Gerardo Parra Parra went 1-for-4 Monday, bringing his slash line down to .279/.287/.424 for 2016. Parra started the season hot, but has slowed down in recent weeks. Parra is just two for his last 25, with seven strikeouts and

Cameron Maybin If you're reading this, it's too late. Too late to pick up Maybin most likely, as the man is a human torch right now, hitting .647 in his first five games of 2016, flashing some power, with

David Ortiz Ortiz is straight up incredible. Now 40 years old, Ortiz hit his tenth home run of the 2016 season in the third inning. But he was just getting started. He then tripled (let's repeat that: DAVID ORTIZ

Domingo Santana Santana returned to the Brewers on Monday in a pinch-hit role, drawing a bases loaded walk in the ninth inning. Santana was a guy I was pretty into before the season, and hasn't really done anything to

David Price Price's 2016 struggles continued on Saturday, as the Red Sox big off-season acquisition made it just 4.2 innings, allowing six earned runs on seven hits and three walks, while striking out four. Price had been alternating good

Nick Castellanos Castellanos has made the impressive transition from underrated to overrated with his hot start to 2016. Castellanos is slashing .363/.376/.563 with three homers, 24 RuBIns and a steal. However, there are some potential warning signs for Castellanos

Neil Walker Walker hit his 8th (eighth!) home run of the 2016 season on Monday night, continuing his red hot start to his Mets career. The ex-Pirate is tied for second in all of baseball, trailing only Bryce Harper

Blake Snell The 23-year-old elite Rays prospect made his debut on Saturday and looked good, going five innings and allowing just one run on two hits, while sporting a strikeout to walk ratio of 6:1. The Rays have said

Denard Span Span was gathering quite a bit of preseason buzz as a strong rebound candidate in 2016, and he made those writers feel smart, at least for a day, with a massive Opening Day performance. Span went 2-for-4

Let it (Miguel) Sano? Sano is one of the more intriguing options heading into the 2016 season. He is the highest-rated Twin option out in the fantasy landscape, and with good reason. In an 80 game debut for the

A's Outfield Platoon Part II Last week I wrote about the the top three most likely players to get run in the A's massive outfield platoon: Josh Reddick, Billy Burns, and Kris Davis; but with the way the A's

A's Outfield Platoon Part I With the addition of both Khris Davis and Chris Coghlan this offseason, the A's outfield is as busy as ever. They now have: Josh Reddick, Billy Burns, Josh Reddick, Coco Crisp and Mark Canha

Mike Morin Huston Street is officially out for the season, and can be cut in all non-dynasty leagues in which owners were hoping for better news. Street left Saturday's game with a groin injury, and it turned out serious enough

Jackie Bradley Jr. Bradley Jr. clubbed his ninth home run of the season as part of a two-hit day in which he drove in three on Saturday, continuing with his sweet swinging second half of the season. Bradley was particularly

Shin-Soo Choo Choo continued his quietly strong season on Sunday, going 3-for-4 with three runs, a home run and two RBI. Choo is now slashing .259/.357/.443 for the year as a whole, and .326/.456/.547 since the All Star Break. That

Jose Quintana Quintana had his best start in a month and a half on Saturday, throwing seven shutout innings in which he gave up seven hits and had a 5:0 strikeout to walk ratio. Qunitana did his dominating against the

Miguel Sano Sano continues to impress, going 1-for-2 with two runs, a home run and two RBI on Sunday. Sano reached via two walks in addition to his homer, and he's now slashing .287/.398/.591. Sano's 162-game projections are pretty absurd

Luis Severino Severino collected his first MLB win on Saturday for the Yankees, tossing six innings of one-run ball. Severino allowed three hits, walked four, and struck out six in the win, lowering his ERA to 1.50, but raising his

Hisashi Iwakuma The big story of Wednesday night was Hisashi Iwakuma's no-hitter. Iwakuma gave up three walks and struck out seven, joining the record books with 116 pitches. Iwakuma has the pedigree that he should have been rostered despite a

Jose Abreu Abreu hit a pair of bombs on Saturday, bringing his season total to 21 home runs. That figure may be a bit lower than his owners were hoping for given his 36 home runs in his rookie season,

Hisashi Iwakuma Iwakuma bounced back nicely from a rough last outing, nearly tossing a complete game shutout against the Twins on Sunday. Iwakuma's final line read: 8.2 IP, 3 H, 1 ER, 1 BB, 8 K, with the lone run

Devon Travis Travis has been back just about a month now, and his average is yet to fall. Despite posting a somewhat lofty .343 BABIP, Travis has actually risen his batting average since returning from injury, as he is now

Jonathan Schoop Schoop has been mashing the ball since his return from injury, with his third home run in nine games (and just eight starts) coming on Sunday. Schoop is now slashing .305/.339/.661 for the season (62 plate appearances) and

Ubaldo Jimenez Jimenez had his worst outing of 2015 on Friday, allowing seven runs (a season high) in just 4.2 innings with the long ball being Jimenez's biggest enemy. Giving up home runs to Victor and J.D. Martinez is one

Jake Odorizzi Odorizzi returned from the DL on Saturday with a strong outing, outdueling the red-hot Dallas Kuechel for his fifth win of the season. Odorizzi went 5.2 innings of shutout ball, allowing just three hits and two walks while

Ervin Santana The Twins' big off-season free agent acquisition made his 2015 season debut on Sunday after serving his 80-game suspension for PEDs. Santana looked much the ace that the Twins - and really patient fantasy owners - were hoping

Carlos Correa Correa is most certainly proving his bona fides at the major league level to start his career, as the number one overall pick from 2012 now has five home runs in just nineteen games, thanks to another bomb

Brett Cecil Cecil's recent struggles continued Sunday, as he took the loss, giving up four runs in two-thirds of an inning, and taking the loss as a result. Cecil came in in a non-save situation, and has now given up

Lance McCullers McCullers put in another strong outing on Sunday, going five no-hit innings, with four strikeouts and four walks. Although the start was another win for McCullers who is now 3-1 with a 2.00 ERA, the start did quite

Chris Heston Heston joined the record books on Tuesday night, tossing a no-hitter with just three hit batsmen being the only baserunners to reach all night (the first time that has happened in MLB history). Heston was just starting to

Jesse Chavez Chavez didn't quite have his 'A' stuff on the mound Saturday, breaking a string of two straight eight inning shutouts that he had thrown in late May. On Saturday, Chavez gave up four runs and eleven baserunners in

Luke Gregerson Gregerson had a nice easy save on Saturday, a nice sight for his owners. Gregerson set down the Tigers in order with a pair of strikeouts to boot. Gregerson had given up multiple baserunners in each of his

Brad Ziegler Brad Ziegler notched his first save of the season on Thursday, a great sign for owners who bit the bullet once Addison Reed was moved out of the closer's role. Ziegler is still available in the vast majority

Mike Wright Wright made his MLB debut on Sunday against the Angels and had an impressive debut to say the least. Wright went 7.1 innings of shutout ball with six strikeouts, no walks, and only four hits allowed. He got

Alexei Ramirez The White Sox had a double-header, and Ramirez made the most of it, going 5-for-8 with a pair of home runs, four RBI, and three runs. The Cuban Missile has had a slow start to the 2015 campaign,

Jed Lowrie Lowrie is a good guy to pick up, especially for teams in need of shortstop help. Lowrie is 6-for-11 in his last three games, and with Lowrie, the question is never whether he can hit, but whether he

Steve Souza Maybe the projection systems do know something we mere humans don't, as STEAMER/PECOTA darling Steve Souza continued his great start to the 2015 season on Sunday. With a 3-for-5 day, Souza raised his slashes to .289/.373/.533, while connecting

Jeurys Familia: With Jennry Mejia going on the DL, Familia is worth a pick up for saves-thirsty owners, as he has been named the team's closer in the interim. Familia pitched quite well for the Mets in 2014, compiling a

Twins Brian Dozier's Power/speed Combo Brian Dozier has been on the fantasy map for a couple seasons now, with an 18/14 HR/SB season in 2013 followed up with a 23/21 pairing in 2014. Now headed into 2015, Dozier is a

Minnesota Twins Twins' top power threat: Oswaldo Arcia The 23-year old Twins' outfielder has yet to go deep in Spring Training this season, but he has a pair of doubles, and is hitting for a good average (.364). Granted, Arcia

Minnesota Twins Phil Hughes' breakout: More to come or regression? A year after going 4-14 with a 5.19 ERA, Phil Hughes had a record-setting 2014 in which he won 16 games, posted a 3.52 ERA, threw over 200 innings with
