6 years agoHouston Astros first baseman Yuli Gurriel has only three hits over his last 19 at-bats after a blistering stretch of offensive baseball. How hot was Gurriel? The 35-year-old recently finished up a month of July where he slashed an astounding .398/.427/.837 with seven doubles, 12 home runs, 18 runs scored and 31 runs batted over the course of only 98 at-bats. During that stretch, Gurriel has catapulted from fringe fantasy asset in standard leagues to must-own in every format. A down-tick in production is to be expected but Gurriel is worth holding onto during a career season.--Joey C - RotoBaller
