BALLER MOVE: Add in 15+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 12% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: With Ryan Mountcastle moved to the injured list, Ryan O'Hearn becomes the beneficiary. He's been playing every day over the past week and making the most of the opportunity. O'Hearn may be more a streaming option than a long-term asset, depending on how his playing time adapts to Mountcastle's inevitable return.

Overall, O'Hearn is slashing .338/.381/.623 with five home runs and seven doubles through 27 games played. That includes a phenomenal .286 ISO and 175 wRC+. There's enough reason to doubt his ability to keep producing at this rate. O'Hearn isn't some new prospect; he's been a below-average offensive contributor for the bulk of his major league career dating back to 2018. Still, he's hitting in the heart of a formidable Baltimore offense and is worth a flier for the moment.
