BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 30% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Following an extremely rough July that saw them fall out of first place in the AL East, the Tampa Bay Rays' offense seems to finally be waking up -- and they need to since nearly their entire pitching staff is out with injuries. One player that's been quiet since the All-Star break is Luke Raley. Hopefully, a big game against Cleveland on Saturday is a sign of better things to come for the 28-year-old.

Raley went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, two RBI, and a walk vs. the Guardians, helping lead the Rays to a 6-5 walk-off win despite Cleveland's starting pitcher Gavin Williams fanning 10 batters. Tampa Bay is 6-4 in their last 10 and are just 1.5 games back of the Baltimore Orioles for first place. If their lineup -- including Raley -- starts hitting home runs at the pace they were in the first half, then they could be a dangerous threat down the stretch for the division crown.
