BALLER MOVE: Hitter Streamer for Week 8
OWNED IN: 7% of leagues
ANALYSIS: After an OPS of .608 in 2017, Alex Gordon started the season with a .623 OPS in March and April. Yikes! However, after coming off the DL, he has rebounded nicely in May, going .308/3/10/7/1 in just 14 games.
While his batted ball profile suggests this may be just good luck, in a week of shallow streaming options, he is worth the gamble. Before his collapse in 2017, there was a lot to like about Gordon as a fantasy player, and thus him showing signs of life is an indication that he may be returning to fantasy relevancy. With decent pitching matchups this week, he is worth a look.
