Baller Move: Add in 12+ team leagues
Owned in: 21% of Fleaflicker leagues
Analysis: Jake Lamb has been a hot add this season to say the least. In 131 AB this year Lamb has five home runs, two stolen bases, and a slash line of .275/.364/.519, and has 21 RBI this season which is tied for 23rd in the NL among the likes of Paul Goldschmidt and Michael Conforto. The RBI can be attributed to Lamb's fantastic performance at the plate with RISP, producing a .286 AVG and a 1.007 OPS in that situation. Lamb's increase in power hitting can be attributed to a huge increase in isolated power, as he is producing a .244 figure in that department this season as compared to .123 last year. Lamb also has a sustainable BABIP of .316 and is striking out 5.7% less. Combined with his impressive OPS splits at home, on the road, and against RHP of .807, .957, and .957, Lamb looks to be a very for-real power play for the rest of the season.
