Chase Utley homers for second time in three games

by Eric Westlund | Sat, Sep 5th 4:11pm EDT

Chase Utley batted 1-for-3 with two walks and a solo home run against the Padres on Friday. Obscured by his ugly season batting line of .220/.294/.358, Utley is batting an eye-popping .333/.398/.590 in 88 plate appearances with two teams since August 7.

Fantasy Impact:

Utley is hitting the ball hard and is entrenched near the top of the Dodgers' lineup as long as Howie Kendrick is out. Kendrick's return will complicate Utley's playing time, but for now he should be started in most fantasy leagues.
