BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues for a Batting Average boost
ANALYSIS: Simply put, Conor Gillaspie can rake. There have been only four games this season in which he did not have at least one base hit. Conor doesn't have enough plate appearances to quality for the batting title, but his .351 average is higher than any qualifying hitter in the American League. He has yet to homer this year but his high average and .400 OBP will create plenty of chances for him to improve upon his 17 R and 18 RBI. Gillaspie will continue to man the hot corner and bat high up in the Sox offense , and he should benefit further from Jose Abreu's return to the lineup. Fantasy owners in deep leagues looking to raise their batting average at the third base position should cash in on Gillaspie's productive play.
