Kevin Pillar (OF, TOR) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 30% of Fleaflicker Leagues

ANALYSIS: Though his overall numbers are still recovering from a vicious slump in May, Pillar has been an unsung hero in the Jays’ leviathan lineup of late. This month has been much kinder to the rookie, as he’s hit .403 with four homers and three stolen bases so far. For the year, Pillar has six homers and 10 steals in 12 attempts, to go along with 40 runs. He has drawn more attention to this point for his excellence in the field than his prowess at the plate. If he keeps hitting the way he has lately, though, that won’t last. Even with the bulk of his at-bats coming as the 8-hole hitter, Toronto’s league-best offense and favorable home park have allowed Pillar to accrue enough counting stats to be fantasy relevant.
