We have made it through another week of the season, and we have some early results to overreact to possibly. The early results give us a set of players to Buy High or Sell Low based on their weekly performances. Based on their recent performances and a full-season outlook, I will break down some players to buy or sell in the coming weeks. Some are just hot streaks, and some are worth buying into, so we are here to help make the right decisions for your fantasy teams. Let’s look at a handful of players you should buy high or sell low after Week 13.

Buy High

Royce Lewis (SS,3B – MIN)

Lewis was off to a slow start since he was activated from the IL with the Twins, but this past week he showcased the skills we’ve all been waiting for. Lewis hit safely in all six games for a .458 batting average. Lewis hit two home runs while stealing a base on his way to a 248 wRC+. He was highly locked in as he struck out only 8% of the time, which meant a lot of balls in play, which was nice with a 40.9% hard-hit rate. Lewis is a much better player than the one we saw in his first few weeks, so buy now while you can.

Luis Robert Jr. (OF – CWS)

Many of us never doubted Robert’s talent; it was just a matter of Robert staying healthy. He has managed to stay healthy this season, and the production has followed in a big way. This past week, Robert hit safely in five of six games for a .444 batting average with four home runs. Robert struck out less than 10% of the time with a 25% barrel rate and a 56.3% hard-hit rate. Robert is having a great season, and there is no sign of it stopping, so jump on board for a huge second half.

Lane Thomas (OF – WAS)

Thomas was off to a slow start to the season but has turned it on offensively over the last month. This past week, Thomas hit safely in six of seven games for a .385 batting average with two doubles, two home runs, and a stolen base. Thomas had a .308 ISO and 1.106 OPS with a 10.5% barrel rate and 42.1% hard-hit rate. The Nationals are playing better offensively than most expected, led by Thomas, who appears to be locked in for the foreseeable future.

Braxton Garrett (SP – MIA)

Garrett is having a great season; this past week was another great start. He threw seven innings while allowing one earned run while striking out 13. Garrett has a 3.64 ERA on the season with a 2.71 xFIP and a 24.2% K-BB. Garrett has allowed ten earned runs over his last eight starts for a 2.00 ERA and 1.98 xFIP with a 32% K-BB. Garrett is locked in, becoming a must-start for the foreseeable future.

Reid Detmers (SP – LAA)

Detmers has been locked in over the last few weeks, and this past week he threw seven shutout innings while striking out eight versus the Dodgers. He has allowed three earned runs over his previous four starts, 25.2 innings, with 34 strikeouts. Detmers has adjusted his slider usage, which is paying off significantly. Detmers is a must-start for the rest of the season if he can keep this up.

Sell Low

Jake Burger (3B – CWS)

Burger was a great fantasy story for a while, but the production has fallen tremendously. This past week he collected two hits, a double, and a home run while striking out 34.8% of the time. Burger had a whopping .403 OPS with a 0 wRC+ as his production deteriorated. Burger was still barreling the ball 14.3% of the time with a 57.1% hard-hit rate, but a 31% O-Swing and 12.2% SwStr will not cut it. When he was mashing, he was an auto-start, but now his struggles may cause Burger to lose playing time when Moncada comes back soon.

Jake Cronenworth (1B,2B,SS – SD)

Cronenworth continues to play daily, but the production continues to drop off, which could eventually lead to a platoon situation. This past week, Cronenworth hit .192 with no extra-base hits. He had zero barrels with a 22.7% hard-hit rate. Cronenworth is now hitting .210 on the season with seven home runs, and he is not worth starting weekly.

Nick Pratto (1B,OF – KC)

Pratto was a tremendous offensive pick-up for a while, but his production has fallen off considerably. This past week Pratto hit .148 with three doubles and a home run. The extra-base hits were nice, but Pratto also struck out 53.6% of the time, which is horrible. Pratto’s fantasy stock rose significantly when Vinnie P became out for the season, and Pratto has not taken advantage of the situation. If Pratto can’t largely cut the strikeout rate, he will be a fantasy hindrance.

Tony Gonsolin (SP – LAD)

After an incredible 2022 season, Gonosolin has hit the regression train in a big way. This past week he allowed four runs over five innings while only striking out three. Gonsolin has a 3.30 ERA and 5.01 xFIP in his 11 starts, with a 10.1% K-BB. Gonsolin brings little fantasy value to any team right now.

J.P. France (SP – HOU)

France was decent to start the season, but his production has hit the skids lately. This last week he did have a quality start by allowing three runs over six innings but only struck out three with a 5.84 xFIP. France now had a 3.54 ERA and 4.80 xFIP with a bad 10.7% K-BB. The blow-ups are coming, and he does not bring a lot of strikeouts or a nice WHIP to your fantasy team, making him a very tough start.
