C: Wilin Rosario – One of the hottest catchers in baseball, he is really enjoying the thin air at Mile High.  He has 4 homeruns over the past two weeks, and is batting just under .300.  He also faces a LHP in Corbin from the D-backs.
1b: Brain LaHair – Quietly, the young cubs 1st baseman is having a great season.  He is batting .356 with 9 homeruns, and at this pace, he will put up over 30 homeruns.

2b: Robinson Cano – Finally Cano is putting it together.  He is batting over .360 in the last 12 games, and he faces a struggling Kyle Drabek today.
3b: Chris Johnson – What a steal for under 7K.  Johnson is batting .342 in his last 15 contests with 4 homeruns and 12 RBIs.  Faces LHP Randy Wolf today.

SS: Elliot Johnson – Who is this guy?  He is 6 for his last 10 with a homerun, and he faces a struggling Clay Buchholz today.
OF: Daniel Nava – Nava is back up in the bigs, and he has started 2012 red hot (7 of 12 with a homerun).

OF: Melky Cabrera – The switch hitting outfielder is quietly putting together an All-Star year.  He is batting .338 with 5 stolen bases.
OF: Shane Victorino – The “Flyin Hawaiin” is batting right at .300 in his last 15 games with 4 stolen bases over that span.

U: Hunter Pence – His batting average is down, but his powers numbers are up, and yesterday he hit 2 bombs that included a walk-off winner.
U: Kyle Seager – The 24 year old is having a very solid season at 3rd for the Mariners.  (.284, 4 homeruns, 21 RBIs, and 3 stolen bases).

SP: Clayton Richard – The Dodgers are officially “Matt Kempless” and this means the Dodgers will struggle to find some offense.  With Richard at less than 7K, he is a great play against a struggling Dodgers offense trying to adjust without Kemp.
SP: Jerome Williams – Williams has thrown a complete game this year with 0 earned runs, and he is 2-0 over his last 3 starts with a 3.36 ERA.  He faces the White Sox today who are in the bottom half of the league in team offense.

SP: Rick Porcello – In his last 3 starts, Porcello is 2-1 with a 3.77 ERA.  Today he faces the dreadful Twins.  Porcello is a MUST play.
RP: Rafael Soriano – Robertson is officially on the 15 day DL which means any and all save opportunities for the Yanks will go through Soriano.  He is under 2K which is a great price, and the Yanks play the Blue Jays today.
