    Buy & Sell

     

    Note: Ownership is based in Yahoo! Leagues.

    Three to Buy

    Lance Berkman (.239/.372/.479, 97% Ownership)

    Although Lance Berkman’s batting average has been a disappointment this season, his BB/K rate is excellent and the power is still there. There are a couple of signs that Berkman could be headed for a big second half of the season. Even though his BABIP stands at .247, Berkman has never had a BABIP below .300 in a season. This means that he has been hitting in a lot of bad luck so far in 2009 despite having virtually the same LD% as 2008. This could be a complete opposite from last season where Berkman raked during the first half and leveled off over the summer.
     

    Adam LaRoche (.267/.363/.498, 31% Ownership)

    A classic slow starter, LaRoche got off to better start this season only to tail off during April and May. A potential free agent next year, LaRoche has been rumored as the next Pittsburgh Pirate to be shipped out of town. That leaves a question about what hitting environment he will be in after the All-Star break. But for his career, LaRoche has a second half line of .297/.360/.548 so if he is available on the waiver wire, now might be the time to stash him on your bench.

    Aaron Harang (5-7, 3.66 ERA, 1.34 WHIP, 93.1 IP, 77 K, 82% Ownership)

    From 2005-2007, Harang went from an under the radar to dominant fantasy pitcher. He suffered through a painful 2008, which scared off a lot of owners. It now appears that Harang is back to those previous levels. His K/9 and BB/9 rates are right in line with what he was doing in his past outstanding seasons. Going forward it looks like he can maintain this level of success because his FIP is almost exactly the same as his current ERA and his BABIP is right around league average. Acquiring Harang now will give your pitching staff a boost for the second half of the season.
     

    Three to Sell

    Michael Bourn

    (.294/.369/.412, 62% Ownership)

    The Bourn Ultimatum has been pretty impressive so far this season considering how awful he was last year. The reason you have Bourn on your roster is for stolen bases, but if Bourn can’t get on base, it makes that skill null and void. With that said, Bourn is still striking out quite a bit. His BABIP of .369 is well above the league average, which means he has hit in a lot of luck so far this season. Another concern is that Bourn is hitting fewer ground balls this season and not trying to leg out base hits. I know some players can make dramatic improvements from year to year, but right now it appears that Bourn is playing way above his head.
     

    Mark Reynolds (.263/.350/.546, 86% Ownership)

    This slugging Diamondback has shown some improved skills so far in 2009. Despite his development, there are still some questions about his continued production. Obviously, his strikeouts are the most glaring worry as he is striking out 37.4% of the time. That tells us that his batting average will most likely continue to come down quite a bit. If that is the case, no matter how many home runs he hits, that low batting average will be a hindrance to your roster. One other point, Reynolds is also hitting fewer fly balls this season, which could lead to fewer home runs during the summer months.

    Rick Porcello (8-4, 3.55 ERA, 1.36 WHIP, 78.2 IP, 44 K, 56% Ownership)

    Porcello has produced 8 wins through June 2009 despite being in only his second professional season. Not known as a strikeout pitcher, he uses a heavy sinker to get outs. Although Porcello has done well so far, there are many glaring question marks about him going forward. His BABIP is well below the league average and there is a huge discrepancy between his ERA and his 4.82 FIP. But the main thing to remember is that he is a very young pitcher and the Tigers are going to have to monitor his innings during the second half of the season. If this is a case, he will have fewer starts to make an impact on your roster.

     

    Name to remember

    Rajai Davis, Oak.-OF. For the time being, Davis has won the centerfield job in Oakland. With Rajai on your roster, he brings the threat of stolen bases as he stole 29 while playing for San Francisco and Oakland last year. Normally the Athletics have shown a distain for the stealing bases, but they must feel safe in letting Davis run as he has 9 SB in thirteen attempts so far this season. If he can start to get on base a little more, the more of an opportunity he will have to use his speed to aid in the stolen base category.

    $0Note:  Ownershipis based in Yahoo! Leagues.$0$0 $0$0Three to Buy$0$0 $0$0Lyle Overbay (.286/.388/.539, 11% Ownership)$0$0 $0$0Often overlooked because he doesn’t produce the typicalpower numbers that are usually associated with other first basemen, Overbay isputting up solid numbers once again. He provides reliable statistics in runs, RBI, and batting average.  For those that play in daily leagues,Overbay is subject to a platoon against left-handers.  But that isn’t necessarily a bad thing as he has a OPS over 1.000versus right handers this year. Overbay wont single handily win your league for you, but he will providesolid production for your roster throughout the year.$0$0 $0$0Rick Ankiel (.261/.329/.483, 31% Ownership)$0$0 $0$0A nasty crash into an outfield wall pretty much derailed thefirst two months of the season for Ankiel.  Now healthy, he is starting to get his timing back.  Ankiel has put together a five gamehitting streak, with four extra base hits during that span.  It may take some time for the battingaverage to come around, but Ankiel is a good source of power goingforward.      $0$0 $0$0Jordan Zimmerman (2-3, 5.71 ERA, 1.37 WHIP, 52 IP, 54 K, 12%Ownership)$0$0 $0$0The hyped preseason rookie has had some struggles so farthis year for the Nationals.  But,then again, what National pitcher hasn’t struggled this season?  Despite the potholes there are actuallysome positives for Zimmerman.  Hehas a healthy K/9 rate of 9.35 and a solid G/F rate of .85.  What is really telling is his .329BABIP, which shows that he has been pitching in a bit a bad luck so far.  This isn’t that surprising as theNational outfield defense is one of the worst in baseball, meaning there are alot of fly balls dropping in for hits when the likes of Josh Willingham andAdam Dunn can’t get to them.  Lookfor Zimmerman to post substantial numbers throughout the season.$0$0 $0$0 $0$0Three to Sell$0$0 $0$0Chris Davis(.207/.266/.434, 75% Ownership)$0$0 $0$0The preseason hot pick for the hot corner, Davis hasstruggled mightily to find any consistency this season.  Granted, the power has been there, butat what cost as he is on pace to shatter the single season strike outrecord.  But the difference betweenDavis, and say Jack Cust, is that Cust draws his share of walks to go along withhis strikeouts.  This leads to Custhelping out in other categories. Davis has walked a whopping twelve times to go along with his 88strikeouts.  Throw in the fact thatthe Rangers have openly discussed sending Davis back to the minor leagues, itstime to sell on Davis before his value is nonexistent.  $0$0 $0$0Trevor Hoffman (0-0, 0.00 ERA, 0.47 WHIP, 17.0 IP, 15 K, 90%Ownership)$0$0 $0$0The all time saves leader is having a resurgence inMilwaukee.  This is very surprisingbecause most pitchers don’t go from struggling at spacious PETCO Park todominating at a very hitter friendly Miller Park.  But certainly, Hoffman has found the fountain of youth sofar.  The question is, will hecontinue at this pace?  I tend tothink that he can’t.  His BABIP isextremely low at this point and I doubt that he will end the season with an ERAof 0.00.  Hoffman may still rack upsome saves due to the Brewers not having any other relief pitchers that can dothe job.  But those saves may comeat a cost to your ERA and WHIP.    $0$0 $0$0Russell Branyan (.319/.419/.628, 72% Ownership)$0$0 $0$0So far this season, Branyan has hit more like Lou Gehrigthan the fringe major leaguer that Branyan has been for most of hiscareer.   What looks mostsuspect is that he is hitting over .300 against left handers this season afteraccumulating a .219/.303/.462 line for his career.  This tells me that there is a steep drop off coming.  Branyan will still get at bats becausethe Mariners don’t have anyone else to play first base and he might still pop afew home runs, but look for the batting average to fall significantly.  $0$0 $0$0 $0$0 $0$0Name to remember…Scott Podsednik, CHIW.-OF. ScottyPods has returned to the South Side and has began to contribute like it was2005 again.  He may not steal fiftybases like in the past, but he could still produce 20-25 stolen bases, which isvery helpful to a fantasy roster. Look for White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen to continue to give Podsednikthe green light on the base paths as the summer rolls on.   $0
