BALLER MOVE: Add in Most Leagues
OWNED IN: 40% of Yahoo leagues
ANALYSIS: Denard Span is a known commodity, and, though he's been made of glass this year, he can be a major asset down the stretch. During his rehab with High-A, Span hit .412 (7 for 17) with a homer and three runs scored. He helps you in average, runs scored, occasional pop and he can obviously steal bases.
Span is more than worth the add. The only thing to bear in mind here is that he hits significantly better against righties than lefties. He sports a .341 average against righties, but a pedestrian .197 average against southpaws.
It's not a bad idea to have a good alternative to sub him out for in daily leagues should he be playing a lefty. In weekly leagues it's also strongly advised to check out if he faces a lefty heavy rotation that week. Also be on the lookout for Michael A. Taylor as he could steal a bit of Span's playing time.
