Mikie Mahtook homers in second straight game
by Michael Felner | Thu, Sep 6th 9:43am EDT
Mikie Mahtook finished 1-for-4 with a walk and his seventh home run of the season in a win over the White Sox on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact:
Mahtook has looked like a different player since returning from his stint in the minors. All seven of his home runs have come since August 16th, three days after his call-up. The wheels could fall off at any time, and considering he's 28, they likely will. But there's nothing wrong with taking a flier on a guy that has a .388 OBP with 15 RBI over the last month. Anyone in daily leagues that owns the number of high-profile outfielders that are slumping or hurt (Upton, Rosario, Pollock, Trout) may want to see if they can make up ground here.
