    Fantasy Baseball Week 8 ~ In the eyes of the Optiongirl

    The fantasy baseball season is moving along and interleague baseball has started. Did you know that next season Houston moves to the American league and there will be at least one interleague series at all times starting in 2013? Be alert, this week players who are designator hitters in the American league could be resting if they are playing a National league team.

    I had another week of injuries for my team, I  have 5 players on the disabled list so I decided to give up a relief pitcher to pick up a hitter for some added flexibility and will be looking forward to getting a few of my players back in the next few weeks.  If your team needs a player there could be a nice jewel in the waiver wire for you. I took a chance on A.J. Ellis even though he is a catcher and hope he continues his hot hotting. This week I have the pleasure of competing against my husband who is right behind me in third place.  

    This week I share with you part of the article written by D.J. Short of Rotoworld.com

    Some Waiver Wire suggestions are:

    Danny Espinosa 2B, Nationals

    There were whispers of a possible demotion not too long ago, or at least the possibility of Steve Lombardozzi seeing increased playing time at second base, but Espinosa has shown some signs of life recently by batting .300 (9-for-30) with two homers, two doubles, two stolen bases and four runs scored over his past eight games. While the 25-year-old still strikes out way too much to be an asset in the batting average department, his power-speed combo makes him worth owning in the great majority of mixed formats. Don’t give up on him yet.

    Chris Heisey OF, Reds

    Heisey had some momentum as a sleeper after slugging 18 homers and swiping six bases in 120 games last year, but he has slipped off the radar in most mixed leagues due to a lack of production and a timeshare with Ryan Ludwick in left field. However, with Ludwick in the midst of a miserable slump, Heisey has started four straight games. Granted, it’s tough to trust Reds manager Dusty Baker and this could go back to a full-fledged timeshare again next week, but Heisey should at least be in the lineup this weekend with the DH in play against the Yankees. He’s an ideal short-term play if you’re fishing for options in a deeper daily league. 

    A.J. Ellis C, Dodgers

    One of the biggest surprises of the early part of the season, Ellis is hitting an unlikely .322/.455/.500 with three homers, 15 RBI and a .955 OPS over his first 114 plate appearances. And if that isn’t impressive enough, consider that only Ben Zobrist and Joey Votto have walked more often this season. I have my doubts about whether Ellis’ early success will continue, as his .394 batting average on balls in play (BABIP) is bound to come down to earth and he had a grand total of 19 homers over 2,119 plate appearances in the minors, but his elite plate discipline is for real. The 31-year-old makes for a fine option in deeper leagues and two-catcher formats, particularly if you are in search of a replacement for Wilson Ramos.

    Michael Brantley OF, Indians

    Brantley is very quietly one of the hottest hitters in the American League right now. After going 2-for-3 on Wednesday night against the White Sox, the 25-year-old outfielder is hitting .448 (13-for-29) with five doubles, one triple, five RBI and a stolen base over his last seven games. Brantley owns a lousy success rate in stolen base attempts (30-for-45) in the big leagues, so I’m not as excited about him as a fantasy option as I was two years ago, but he does just enough in all categories to be relevant in deeper leagues and five-outfielder formats.

    Ryan Vogelsong SP, Giants

    Six starts into the 2012 season and it looks like Vogelsong has picked up from where he left off last year. The 34-year-old right-hander owns a 2.66 ERA and has allowed exactly one run in each of his last three outings. It’s worth noting that he has walked 19 batters in just 40 2/3 innings and has seen declines in his velocity and swinging strike rate, so continue to monitor these trends, but he remains a pretty safe play this weekend against the light-hitting Athletics.

    Erick Aybar SS, Angels

    Aybar was considered a top-12 shortstop on draft day, but his production has completely dropped off the table in the early part of 2012. The 28-year-old switch-hitter is batting just .190 on the year and .127 over his last 19 games. So, what the heck is going on here? On first glance, Aybar’s .224 batting average on balls in play (BABIP) indicates that he’s hitting into bad luck, but he’s actually hitting less line drives, more ground balls and more infield fly balls. In other words, he’s a pretty easy out. However, his history suggests that he should rebound. And his four-year, $35 million extension should provide him plenty of rope. There are better options to start in shallow mixed leagues right now, but Aybar makes for a fine buy-low if you are willing to be patient.

    Justin Morneau 1B, Twins

    Morneau was finally starting to come around with the bat in mid-April before he began dealing with soreness in his surgically-repaired left wrist. While he eventually required a stint on the disabled list, he returned as soon as he was eligible Wednesday and doubled in a win over the Tigers. For what it’s worth, Morneau has told Twins manager Ron Gardenhire that he would rather play first base than serve as the designated hitter. His injury history is still a major red flag, but perhaps he’s finally feeling healthy. Those looking to fill a CI (corner infielder) spot can afford to gamble, anyway.

    James McDonald SP, Pirates

    I recommended McDonald in the second Waiver Wired of the season when he was owned in just two percent of Y! leagues and 0.5 percent of ESPN.com leagues. While I thought he could be useful in deeper leagues and in certain matchups, I certainly didn’t think he would have a 2.42 ERA through seven starts. McDonald’s .250 batting average on balls in play (BABIP) suggests that he has been a bit fortunate and he has only allowed two home runs in 44 2/3 innings after giving up 24 in 171 innings last year, but I’m encouraged that he has induced more ground balls while improving his walk and strikeout rates. The wins might be hard to come by with the weak Pittsburgh offense, but we might have a breakout candidate on our hands here.

    Brennan Boesch OF, Tigers

    If there’s anything we have learned about Boesch since he made his major league debut back in 2010, it’s that he’s notoriously streaky. The good news is that he appears to be in one of those streaks right now. The 29-year-old is hitting .333 (11-for-33) with two doubles and two RBI over his last eight games and has hit safely in all of them. Some power would be nice, but we already know that he has the potential to reach 15-20 homers. Now would be a good time to check to see if someone gave up on him too soon in your league.

    John Mayberry, Jr. 1B/OF, Phillies

    Another popular sleeper on draft day, Mayberry found himself buried on Charlie Manuel’s bench after getting off to a slow start. However, with the Phillies starved for offense, Mayberry has started nine straight games. And wouldn’t you know it, he’s finally hitting, too. While he took an 0-fer Wednesday night against the Astros, Mayberry is batting .286 (10-for-35) with one homer, two doubles, four RBI and five runs scored during the nine-game span. Remember, this is a guy who smacked 15 homers and stole eight bases to go along with an .854 OPS in 104 games last year, so those in five-outfielder mixed formats should be willing to see if he has turned the corner.

    Ben Revere OF, Twins

    With Ryan Doumit and Denard Span both nursing injuries, the Twins have called up Revere to serve as insurance for their outfield. The speedy 24-year-old was sent down to Triple-A Rochester in mid-April so that he could play every day, but there’s a chance he could find regular playing time in left field now that Justin Morneau is back playing first base and Chris Parmelee has been demoted to the minors. Revere doesn’t pack much power or patience, but he stole 34 bases in just 117 games last season. It should be pretty easy for fantasy owners to forgive his flaws. He’s worth a flier for anyone looking to catch up in the stolen base department.

    Wei-Yin Chen SP, Orioles

    The O’s gambled and lost on Tsuyoshi Wada, who underwent season-ending Tommy John surgery last week, but Chen has proven to be a real surprise in the early part of the season. After limiting the Yankees to just two runs over seven innings on Tuesday night, the 26-year-old southpaw owns an impressive 2.45 ERA and 32/14 K/BB ratio in 44 innings over his first seven major league starts. Chen is only averaging 90.1 mph on his fastball thus far and has allowed fly balls 45.2 percent of the time, so he’s likely to have some rough outings pitching in the American League East, but he should continue to have value in certain matchups. A date with the Nationals this weekend under National League rules should be one of them.

    Jesus Flores C, Nationals

    The Nationals were struck by the injury bug yet again on Saturday night as Wilson Ramos tore the ACL in his right knee while chasing after a passed ball. He’ll undergo surgery in two or three weeks and is expected to miss the rest of the season. This opens the door for Flores to get regular playing time behind the plate. Of course, it wasn’t too long ago that Flores was considered the Nats’ catcher of the future, but a lengthy absence following shoulder surgery changed all that. The 27-year-old only has 145 plate appearances in the majors since 2009 and his plate discipline still leaves something to be desired, but there’s enough pop in his bat to make him interesting. 

    Charlie Culberson 2B, Giants

    Desperate for some offense from a second base spot which ranks last in the majors with a .449 OPS, the Giants called up Culberson from Triple-A Fresno over the weekend. The 23-year-old is coming off a disappointing year with Double-A Richmond, but he was hitting .284 with five homers, 24 RBI and an .816 OPS over his first 36 games at the Triple-A level. Those numbers come with the obvious Pacific Coast League caveat, of course. I’m not convinced Culberson will be successful in his first taste of the big leagues, as he is better against southpaws than righties and his plate discipline leaves a lot to be desired, but with Emmanuel Burriss and Brandon Crawford struggling and Pablo Sandoval sidelined following hamate bone surgery, the opportunity should be there.

    Tony Gwynn, Jr. OF, Dodgers

    The Dodgers had no other choice but to place Matt Kemp on the disabled list earlier this week, which means Gwynn should get plenty of playing time in center field over the next two weeks. The 29-year-old owns a .248/.320/.325 batting line in the big leagues, so there’s not a lot to get excited about, but he has a 9.3 percent career walk rate and stole 22 bases in 28 attempts last year. He’s a logical pickup in NL-only leagues, but he could have some fleeting relevancy in deeper mixed leagues, as well.

    Nate McLouth OF, Pirates

    Alex Presley earned a chance at the starting left field job after batting .298 with four homers, 20 RBI, nine stolen bases and an .804 OPS in 52 games last year, but the Pirates demoted him to Triple-A Indianapolis on Wednesday after he batted just .220 with two homer and a 30/4 K/BB ratio over his first 34 games this season. We’ll likely see a platoon of McLouth and Yamaico Navarro in the short-term, possibly with Garrett Jones mixed in. McLouth is hitting .207 with a .635 OPS dating back to the start of 2010, so he doesn’t inspire much confidence, but I like him better than Navarro since he hits left-handed and should be on the strong side of a timeshare. Sometimes playing time is king.

    Alex Cobb SP, Rays

    The Rays suddenly have an opening in their starting rotation now that Jeff Niemann is expected to miss the next four to six weeks with a fractured right fibula. Wade Davis is expected to stay in the bullpen, which leaves Cobb and Chris Archer as the most likely alternatives for the rotation. I’d give a slight edge to Cobb here because he had a 3.42 ERA in nine starts with the big club last year, but whoever is promoted is worth an automatic add in AL-only leagues.

    Hank Conger C, Angels

    The Angels acquired Chris Iannetta from the Rockies over the winter to serve as their starting catcher, but he’s expected to be sidelined through at least late June after undergoing right wrist surgery last week. While the underwhelming duo of Bobby Wilson and John Hester will fill in for now, Conger could be fully recovered from a sprained elbow within in the next couple of weeks. Angels manager Mike Scioscia has a history of frustrating fantasy owners, particularly with his choices behind the dish, but Conger is far and away the best in-house alternative to Iannetta. Stash him away in case he gets a chance to prove it.

    Xavier Avery OF, Orioles

    Looking for a spark in their outfield with both Nolan Reimold and Endy Chavez on the disabled list, the Orioles called up Avery from Triple-A Norfolk over the weekend. The 22-year-old is 5-for-18 (.278) to begin his major league career and has hit leadoff in three out of four games. Avery still strikes out too much to hit for a high batting average, but he was making strides with his patience early this season and has stolen 125 bases over 483 games in the minor leagues. That kind of speed just can’t sit on the wire in AL-only leagues.

    As the 2012 season continues I will be discussing events of the week (tidbits), injury news, waiver wire possibilities, and sharing with you articles that I am reading that will help you achieve your goal of reaching the playoffs, and achieving the goal of being the 2012 Fantasy Baseball champion of your league!  Post your comments questions and feel free to e-mail me any time at Bonniegortler@gmail.com.

    Lady Antebellum - Need You Now

    Picture perfect memories
    Scattered all around the floor
    Reaching for the phone ‘cause
    I can’t fight it anymore

    And I wonder if I
    Ever cross your mind
    For me it happens all the time

    It’s a quarter after one
    I’m all alone
    And I need you now
    Said I wouldn’t call
    But I’ve lost all control
    And I need you now

    And I don’t know how
    I can do without
    I just need you now

    Another shot of whiskey
    Can’t stop looking at the door
    Wishing you’d come sweeping
    In the way you did before

    And I wonder if I
    Ever cross your mind
    For me it happens all the time

    It’s a quarter after one
    I’m a little drunk
    And I need you now
    Said I wouldn’t call
    But I’ve lost all control
    And I need you now

    And I don’t know how
    I can do without
    I just need you now

    Whoa, whoa
    Guess I’d rather hurt
    Than feel nothing at all

    It’s a quarter after one
    I’m all alone
    And I need you now
    And I said I wouldn’t call
    But I’m a little drunk
    And I need you now

    And I don’t know how
    I can do without
    I just need you now
    I just need you now

    Oh baby, I need you now
