BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, AL-Only Leagues

OWNED IN: 10% Fleaflicker

ANALYSIS: Following a horrendous start to the season, Ketel Marte has begun to look more like the multi-talented shortstop prospect that most people hoped he would be when they drafted him. In his last 15 games, he's hitting .333 with 15 hits and seven runs scored. Marte’s main weapon is his speed, and he really hasn't had a chance to utilize it— you can't steal bases if you're not on base. As his bat heats up, he should be stealing bags on a regular basis. He's a switch-hitter and there is nobody to crowd him out of the spot, so expect the Mariners to be patient with their young shortstop— just as you should be.
