BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 45% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Could this be it? Could this be the week Ezequiel Tovar finally cracks the 50% rostered threshold for the first time since April? It's getting old writing up the same player every week, but then again, he's still available in over half of all fantasy leagues, so we need to keep pounding the drum.
If we rewind to March, Tovar was one of the biggest sleepers in fantasy. What's not to love? Elite prospect? Check. Half his games in Coors Field? Check. Fantasy managers were tripping over themselves to draft the 21-year-old top prospect for the Rockies. Then, he batted .213 in March/April and was kicked to the proverbial curb.

Yet again, let's check out his numbers since May 1. Tovar is batting .288 with a .495 slugging percentage with all nine of his homers in that span. He's also got four steals and has 68 runs-plus-RBI in 56 games. Tovar has been great since the calendar flipped to May. Rockies reporter Kelsey Wingert-Linch sums up how many of us feel about this budding star.
I am, once again, BEGGING you to familiarize yourself w/ the name EZEQUIEL TOVAR. The #Rockies rookie SS just hit his 8th HR of the year, this one a 3-run shot extending Rox lead to 8-3 over the #Tigers in the 6th. He has 2 hits & 3RBI today already, riding a 13-game hit streak. pic.twitter.com/PMjrdVWM2K
