C: Jarrod Saltalamachia – The switch hitting catcher is under 7K, and he has 3 homeruns over the last two weeks to put his season total at 7.  He is also batting .333 over that stretch, and now finds his batting average creeping towards .300.
1b: Albert Pujols – Looks like Pujols is finally figuring out his swing in 2012.  Last night he went 3 for 4 with a bomb and 2 RBIs.

2b: Dan Uggla – Uggla loves lefties, and the Braves face Ross Detwiler today.  Fredi Gonzalez likes to use Uggla as the clean-up hitter against lefties. 
3b: Jose Lopez – Valued at under 7K, and over the last two weeks Lopez has been peppering the field with a .343 batting average.

SS: Ian Desmond – Over the last 15 days, Desmond is batting just shy of .300 with 4 homeruns, 9 RBIs, 9 runs scored, and 3 stolen bases.
OF: Will Venable – Maybe the only Padre hitting right now, Venable is 6 for his last 10 with a homerun.

OF: B.J. Upton – Upton is one of the hottest hitters in the league right now, and has 8 stolen bases over his last 14 games.  He is 13 for his last 29, and is now batting .300 on the year.
OF: Adam Jones – Faces a lefty in Bruce Chen today, and Jones is batting over .300 this season with 14 bombs.

U: Corey Hart – Batting over .300 in the last two weeks with 3 homeruns, Hart is now in the leadoff spot and seeing some time at first base.
U: Jose Bautista – Faces a lefty today in Derek Holland, and he is 8 for his last 18 with 2 homeruns.

SP: Tyson Ross – Valued at 6K, Ross is 1-1 with a 1.5 ERA in his last two starts.  We understand Ross has to face the Yankees today, and this could be a death sentence, but we have a good feeling Ross will stay hot and keep the Yankees at bay today.
SP: Jeanmar Gomez – 1-0 in 13+ innings in his last two starts, Gomez has lowered his season ERA to 3.19 and is 3-2 on the year.  He only costs 8.7K.

SP: Lucas Harrell – In his last 17+ innings, Harrell has only given up 5 earned runs while striking out 13 batters.  He is valued at under 10K.
RP: Brett Myers – We believe Harrell gets the wind today as Myers comes in to shut the door on the Dodgers.  Myers has 11 saves on the year and a sub 2 ERA.  He has been pretty consistent.
