Fantasy Impact:
Loperfido has been red hot at Triple-A Sugar Land. He is slashing .287/.393/.713 with 13 HR, 28 RBI, and five stolen bases. The struggling Astros could use an infusion of power at first base. Jose Abreu (OPS .269) and Jon Singleton (.605) have not homered and have collectively gone 17-for-113 this season. Loperfido is a solid add in all formats, though it is essential to have patience for the 24-year-old as he makes the transition to the majors.
