BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 47% of Fleaflicker Leagues
ANALYSIS: After struggling through much of the first half, Mauer has shown signs of life lately. He’s slashed .319/.382/.495 over the past month, with four of his six homers on the season coming in that span. Mauer’s age and injury history are a concern, and his lack of power makes him a less than ideal option at first base. However, he’s a .316 career hitter and his batted ball data suggests improvement on his current .271 mark should be expected. If he can continue to pop the occasional homer, Mauer should be an asset in deeper leagues.
