ANALYSIS: Mike Napoli, officially an MLB journeyman, is one of those guys who seems like an All-Star hitter every time you happen to see him play on TV. Over the course of an entire season, the stats tell a different story. Since Napoli's 30 HR, 1.046 OPS campaign back in 2011, his career has been trending downwards as the hard-hitting righty has failed to post an OPS over .850 in the past four seasons. Things haven't been great thus far in 2016, evidenced by Napoli's .234/.306/.486 line. However, the first baseman (who is outfield eligible in most leagues) now finds himself in the midst of a nice eight-game hitting streak and has already amassed 11 taters on the year. That puts him on pace for 36 by season's end. The veteran is still an everyday player in Cleveland and should be a reliable fantasy option in 12+ team leagues as long as the production remains consistent.
