BALLER MOVE: Add in Very Deep Leagues
OWNED IN: 13% of Fleaflicker Leagues
ANALYSIS: Freshly activated off his recent DL stint and ready to make an impact in deep leagues is James Loney. You likely have a quality first baseman already due to the depth of the position and have no need for one even in a deep league. But if you find yourself searching for a replacement or need consistency in the batting average column, Loney is your guy.
Loney is a career .285 hitter and hit .290 and .299 in his last two respective years. He's never been a home run hitter having never surpassed 15, but he can certainly help in the BA and counting categories. He’ll go for quite a few doubles and hit for a high average. He’s also set in the middle of the lineup, primed for RBI opportunities. Only owned in 4% of Yahoo! Leagues, he’ll likely be available for you. If you’re in a very deep league or you’re scramming for a first baseman, consider James Loney as an option.
