BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed and AL-Only Leagues
ANALYSIS: No team in baseball scored more runs in 2014 than the Angels. This year, the reigning AL West Champions returned strong, with Kole Calhoun, Mike Trout and Albert Pujols at the top of the lineup. Hitting cleanup behind these three, David Freese's run-producing opportunities alone could make him incredibly valuable on the right team.
Freese is nothing special-- roughly a .260 hitter with 12-15 HR pop and no speed. He hasn’t shown the ability to be anything more than that this year, but he doesn't need to be, for the purposes of fantasy. When you plug a hitter with that skillset behind Calhoun, Trout and Pujols, you get a counting stat machine. Despite the Angels rather lackluster start to the year, Freese already has 13 RBI, tying him for the 12th spot in all of baseball.
