Scooter Gennett (2B, MIL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues

ANALYSIS: Scooter Gennett is still only owned in 40% of Yahoo! leagues, which is pretty shocking considering his last 30 days and 68 ABs: 15 R, 4 HR, 14 RBI, 1 SB, .309 BA. He's the 6th rated 2B over that time frame, he's batting at the top of a potent Brewers lineup, and he's hitting, hitting, and hitting some more whenever he plays.  If you extrapolated Gennett's stat line across a full season, it would look like this: 550 AB, .305 BA, 85 Runs, 14 HR, 65 RBI, and 8 SB, which would easily be top 10 at the shallow 2B position. While it's doubtful he could achieve that level of production without improving vs. LHP (currently hitting .118 in 34 ABs), he is a must start in all games with a right handed starter. Don't sleep on Gennett any longer, scoop him up now off the waiver wire!
