BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 3% of Fleaflicker Leagues
ANALYSIS: Mercer’s overall numbers are still abysmal for the year, but he has truly picked it up in the last two weeks, putting himself back on the radar in deeper leagues. Over his last 15 games, he’s hitting .342 with a pair of jacks and six runs scored, which is useful in any format. He’s a bottom-of-the-lineup guy, so his RBI totals will never jump off the page. However, the more he gets on base the more he’ll score, and perhaps even find his way to 10-12 steals by the end of the year. I wouldn’t expect to ride him for the year, but if you’re an unlucky Zack Cozart owner, he could be a good injury fill-in for now.
