BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ team leagues
OWNED IN: 30% of Fleaflicker leagues
ANALYSIS: Fantasy owners have had to display a great deal of patience so far in dealing with Ender Inciarte. Not even a full week into the season, Inciarte strained a hamstring and was on the shelf until May 7, missing an entire month. Upon his return, he is performing about as well as every other Braves player. Which is to say, not so good. Inciarte is currently hitting .217/.280/.246 with zero home runs, two runs batted in and two stolen bases. Although it's doubtful the Braves offense as a whole will improve too much, Inciarte should provide a cheap source of average and steals. Last season in Arizona, Inciarte hit .303 and stole 21 bases; owners are expecting a similar line this season. He won't help in the power categories and as part of one of the worst offenses in baseball, his run-scoring potential takes a hit. If you need speed without sacrificing average, however, Inciarte could fill a need in your deep-league roster.
