BALLER MOVE: Short Term Add in All Leagues
OWNED IN: 12% Fleaflicker leagues
ANALYSIS: Second base is always a thin position in the world of fantasy baseball. The emergence of Danny Espinosa’s offense makes for a temporary fix for a team’s fantasy season that can’t seem to find the right player to plug into the 2B position.
The Washington Nationals second baseman has been hitting the ball well lately, having 12 hits in his last 11 games. Espinosa also slugged three homers and eight RBI. The 28-year-old has raised his BA to .269, his SLG to .476. and his OPS to .845.
Anthony Rendon (knee/oblique) still appears to be a few weeks away from returning to action, so Espinosa will continue to see regular at-bats. This provides more value for Espinosa while Rendon is out. Once he comes back, it might be time to let him go though.
