Rhys Hoskins Stays Cold in Colorado
Rhys Hoskins went 0-for-3 with a hit by pitch and a run scored in Thursday's loss to the Rockies. Hoskins hit two home runs on April 8 but has been ice-cold since. He has only four hits and one RBI in 32 at-bats since that game. The good news for fantasy owners is that Hoskins still has a .397 on-base percentage generated from his elite 17.9 percent walk rate. Hoskins has always been the type of player to take his walks and as long as he is seeing the ball fine, things should turn around for him soon. The Phillies have three more games in Colorado this weekend, so as long as Hoskins is in the Phillies lineup, he should be in fantasy lineups.

Rhys Hoskins Stays Hot, Delivers Combo Meal On Sunday
Rhys Hoskins had a big day at the plate on Sunday, going 3-for-4 with a homer and a steal in a 14-1 smashing of the Athletics. Hoskins added two runs and four RBI to round out a dominant overall stat line. It was a much-needed game for the 32-year-old, who was off to a slow start before this one. He's now up to a .262 AVG with six runs, three homers, 12 RBI, and one steal over 56 at-bats. Hoskins has been heating up over the past week, and if he can return to form he should be a solid source of power in fantasy. Now is a good time to grab him and see if he can continue this hot stretch.

Rhys Hoskins, Sal Frelick Sitting On Thursday
Rhys Hoskins and outfielder Sal Frelick are not in Thursday's lineup when they conclude a series against the Colorado Rockies. Fantasy managers should expect both Hoskins and Frelick to return to the lineup against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Friday evening. Hoskins has tallied just two hits over his previous four games and will cede first base duties to Jake Bauers, who will bat sixth. Frelick is riding a six-game hitting streak and has enjoyed a very productive start to the campaign. With Frelick sitting out, Jackson Chourio will shift to right field, opening up left field for Christian Yelich. The Brewers are a great lineup to target in DFS competitions this afternoon as they will face Colorado right-handed pitcher Ryan Feltner.

Rhys Hoskins Not In Sunday's Lineup
Rhys Hoskins is not in Sunday's lineup when the Brewers conclude their opening series against the New York Yankees. Hoskins started at first base in each of the first two games of the series and went 1-for-6 with one RBI and a 2:2 BB:K. As a result, Jake Bauers will get the nod at first base and face right-hander Marcus Stroman. Bauers has yet to receive a start this series. Across two plate appearances as a pinch-hitter, Bauers has drawn a walk and tallied a double. Fantasy managers should expect Hoskins to return to the starting nine on Monday when they face the Kansas City Royals. Bauers does have streaming appeal in this matchup facing Stroman, who allowed a high 4.31 ERA and a 1.47 WHIP across 154 2/3 innings of work last summer.
