ANALYSIS: Joe Panik is not a guy that is going to hit you a ton of home runs or get you many steals, but he is a solid fantasy baseball player at a thin position. Since he is a good contact hitter and hits for average, he will have opportunities to score runs and drive some runs in as well. Panik is shortstop and second base eligible in most formats, and over the past 14 days is hitting a sizzling .370 with 10 Runs and 3 RBI. Not too shabby. Over the last 30 days, more of the same -- a robust .370 batting average, with 16 Runs and 10 RBI. If you are looking for a middle infield upgrade, are hurting in the batting average department, or are just not getting enough production out of your 2B/SS slots, grab Panik off the waiver wire as he's on our list of sleepers who can help your fantasy baseball teams down the stretch.
