BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 15% of leagues
ANALYSIS: With the multitude of injures in Philadelphia right now, the team has been forced to lean heavily on their supporting players. And as of late, few supporting players have been hitting as well as outfielder Odubel Herrera.

Herrera has three multi-hit games over his past eight. He's slashing .310/.398/.465 over the month of May with two home runs, five doubles, three stolen bases, nine RBI and eight runs. His 18.2% strikeout rate on the year is the lowest clip he's ever had (23.7% in his last season, 2019). He also has a career-best 44.1% hard-hit rate, up from 30.9% in 2019. He's always been a strong performer in max exit velocity and this year has been no different. His 112.5 mph max exit velocity ranks in the 87th percentile of the league.
The team has gone with Herrera as their No. 2 hitter in two consecutive games and he's been in the lineup essentially everyday lately. He should be added in all leagues of 12 teams or deeper. He figures to be a solid contributor of runs, batting average and stolen bases in at least the short-term.
