BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 36% of Fleaflicker Leagues
ANALYSIS: Trevor Plouffe has been better than ever before as of late. After swatting a grand slam and 5 RBI this past Sunday, he's off to the hottest start of his career. Needless to say, this pace is unsustainable for Plouffe, whose .269/.358/.454 slash line in 2015 is higher in every category than in any prior season of his career.
Still, his 5 HR and 17 RBI are likely some of the sharpest power numbers sitting on the waiver wire right now. Plouffe will regress back to his career averages at some point; but why not pick up a certified slugger on a hot streak? Let's not forget Plouffe's 2012 campaign, in which he delivered 24 HR.
The 29 year-old is still in his prime. According to ESPN's 2015 projections, 24 HR would be higher than all but five third basemen this season. If this ends up being one of those seasons for Plouffe, you could have one of the best sluggers at the position for free.
