Matt Duffy (2B / 3B, SF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 15% of Fleaflicker leagues

ANALYSIS: Few players in baseball have been able to find their stride throughout the season like Matt Duffy has. Duffy began the season with a March/April OPS of .642, then Duffy improved to a May OPS of .778, and so far in June Duffy has been on fire with an OPS of .953. Duffy has been especially good against RHP, with an OPS of .894 on the season.

In total this year Duffy has a BA of .297, eight HR, 37 RBI, a .825 OPS, and two SB; while improving his XBH% from 3.1% to 9.1%. When you play for a good team full of offensive X-factors, your BA has great potential to be converted into RBI and when you get on base, you have a great chance to score a run. That has been the case with Duffy recently.

Matt Duffy also carries the added bonus of being eligible at two different infield positions. Now that Duffy has hit his stride and is hitting consistently and for solid power, fantasy baseball managers should take the hint that Duffy's OPS trend is giving them and add him to starting lineups, especially if the Giants are facing a RHP.
