BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 4% of leagues
ANALYSIS: Kansas City Royals utility player Adalberto Mondesi may have had his fantasy season saved by the Royals trading Mike Moustakas to the Brewers. Mondesi has been a boon to your batting average in recent days as well, and he has speed to offer on top of it. The 23-year-old has hit safely in eight straight, collecting multiple hits in five of those games.
He has slashed .294/.310/.471 with three homers and seven steals in just 87 plate appearances thus far. If nothing else, this latest stab at the majors has already gone much better than Mondesi’s first two cameos in 2016 and 2017. He still strikes out a lot, but Mondesi is a great play for those in need of steals, and there is surprising pop in his bat when he does connect.
While this is not the sexiest of pick ups, Mondesi has eligibility in the middle infield and will likely get 3B eligibility with Moose in Milwaukee. He is good depth in deeper leagues.
