Chris Colabello (1B/OF, TOR) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in AL leagues

OWNED IN: 5% Fleaflicker leagues

ANALYSIS: The Toronto Blue Jays have turned Chris Colabello into a valuable utility player. Ever since he was given a shot to play every day this season, he’s proving that he belongs in the bigs.

The 31-year-old has a .365 BA, .500 SLG, .421 OBP and has five multi-hit games over the past two weeks. Colabello doesn’t hit for too much for power or drive in runs, but he simply racks up hits. Another positive is that he can be plugged in at 1B, RF and LF for your daily roster.

This is his first season with Toronto and it’s been much better than his time with the Minnesota Twins.  In two seasons with the Twins, Colabello had a .194 BA, which was followed by a .229 BA and only 47 hits with 205 AB in 2014.
