Angel Pagan (OF, SF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 43% Fleaflicker

ANALYSIS: Angel Pagan shot out of the gate with 13 R in his first 11 games. He was also hitting .385 at that point in time, with two stolen bases to boot. Since that time, Pagan has been grounded. His average remains at .315, but he has missed the past 10 games due to a hamstring strain. Several players have succumbed to early hamstring issues, which can take time to heal. Luckily, he is still listed as day-to-day, so it appears he'll avoid a DL appearance.

Pagan should maintain his run-scoring potential upon return to the Giants lineup. He is also contributing in the RBI category by driving in 13 runs so far. Pagan has stolen as many as 37 bases in a year, so don't be surprised if he approaches 20 SB this season. For a player who contributes in nearly every category other than HR, Pagan deserves more fantasy love. Feel free to add him as soon as he takes the field again.
