BALLER MOVE: Add in 12 Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 26% of Yahoo Leagues
ANALYSIS: After going 0-for-4 in the first game of a doubleheader on June 10, Reyes had gone hitless in his last 24 at-bats. His season line at that point: .184/.257/.294, 3 HR, 7 SB. In the six weeks since, however, Reyes has been quietly great. He's hit .298/.338/.550, with six home runs and five stolen bases in 147 plate appearances. While he primarily has hit seventh, this recent hot stretch has been enough to get him penciled into the leadoff spot a few times this month.
Given the scarcity of stolen bases in the fantasy landscape right now, any player who can contribute in that area without murdering your team in the other categories deserves consideration. At the moment, Reyes qualifies. The promotion of Amed Rosario looms, but Reyes can slide over to third base whenever that happens.
