Joe Panik (2B, SF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues.

OWNED IN: 49% of Fleaflicker leagues.

ANALYSIS: Panik has impressed with five HR and two SB through only 34 games and 149 plate appearances. While his batting average is way down, it is mostly due to an unfortunate .255 BABIP. As his BABIP rises to meet his career averages or even exceed them, his batting average should rise as well. By this time in June, Joe could easily be hitting .300 if his luck improves. If you need help at the keystone or MI Panik is a strong add in every size league and should be plenty useful going forward.
