Juan Lagares (OF, NYM) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in NL-Only Leagues

Ownership: 10% of Fleaflicker Leagues

ANALYSIS: Juan Lagares has bounced back from a lousy May, hitting .309 with a .811 OPS thus far in June despite nursing an elbow injury that is limiting him in the outfield. Overall, he’s got a solid .271 batting average and 30 runs scored, with five steals in seven attempts. The fact that he hasn’t run more is surprising, given that his speed is one of his strongest assets. There have been rumblings that he may eventually need Tommy John surgery, but for the moment, Lagares appears to be suffering no ill effects at the plate.
