Buster Posey (C,1B,DH)

San Francisco Giants C Buster Posey was 0-for-3 with a strikeout in Wednesday's 9-3 loss versus the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Fantasy Impact: Despite a fantastic month, even the best baseball players have a hitless night. Fortunately for Posey owners, he's had less than ten of those this month while sporting a .291 batting average on the season. He should be played in all scenarios and is a top option versus left-handed pitching from a DFS perspective.

Fantasy Impact: Posey played 1B as teammate Brandon Belt did not play due to an illness. This was Posey's fourth multi-hit game in his last six games. He raised his batting average to .288 this season and is a hot fantasy option at the moment. He is at his best when facing left-handed pitching.

San Francisco Giants C Buster Posey was 2-for-4 with a single, double and RBI in Wednesday's 6-5 loss to the Colorado Rockies.

Fantasy Impact: Not much has gone right for the Giants' lineup in the second half of the season and it sure doesn't help that Posey hasn't hit a home run since July 16th. Fantasy owners have been seeing inconsistent results from the Giants' all-star catcher, but there's no reason to bench him on your fantasy roster. He has been hitting for less power, but still gets hits with a batting average of .289.

Fantasy Impact: Posey's pinch-htting appearance on Sunday means that the back issue was not a serious one, a good thing for owners of the top-three catcher. He may not have very flashy numbers, but has three multi-RBI games in his last 10 games and has seven walks in his last five games.

Buster Posey is not in Tuesday's starting lineup for the Giants.

Fantasy Impact: Looks like a day of rest for Posey after Monday's extra inning game against the Marlins. Although Posey suffered a minor finger injury on Monday, the Giants said earlier that the injury would not keep Posey out of action.

San Francisco Giants C Buster Posey recorded a double in Sunday's loss to the Washington Nationals and failed to reach base in three other at-bats.

Fantasy Impact: Posey didn't have a great game, but it was better than the majority of the Giants' lineup as they only recorded five hits as a team. He has had multi-hit games in two of his last four games. Posey has a tough matchup against All-Star pitcher Jose Fernandez on Monday, but finding a better replacement will be hard to come by.

Buster Posey went 2-for-4 with one run and one walk in the Giants victory over the Nats.

Fantasy Impact: Even though any fantasy player would take a .284 average with 12 home runs and 47 RBI at this point in the season, these are not typical Posey numbers. Last season, he had 19 home runs and batted .318 with 95 RBI. Is this an off year, or something we should be concerned about in a decline for the overused catcher?

Buster Posey failed to record a hit and finished the game going 0-for-4.

Fantasy Impact: This has not been the best of seasons for Buster Posey. He has 12 home runs and batting just .285 with 47 RBI. Posey should still be considered as the top hitting catcher in baseball, but he isn't near what he has been in the previous seasons.

San Francisco Giants C Buster Posey had two singles and drove in two runs in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the New York Yankees.

Fantasy Impact: Posey was the only Giant able to generate any offense against the Yankees on Sunday, but his fantasy value has dropped a little since all of the recent injuries to their lineup. Regardless of the injuries, Posey is an elite fantasy catcher and should start in all formats.

Fantasy Impact: Buster Posey looks to get the Giants lineup going as they are riding a four-game losing streak heading into a weekend series against the New York Yankees.

Buster Posey finished 1-for-4 with a walk and two runs scored against the Diamondbacks on Friday. Posey is 5-for-17 with three extra-base hits, three RBI, and five runs scored. He has an .841 OPS this season.

Fantasy Impact: Posey has scored a run in seven of his last 10 games and has home runs in three of his last seven games, showing why he is the top option at catcher. Although Wilson Ramos has better statistics than Posey, it is a safe bet to say that the Giants' catcher, who has already set a career-high with five stolen bases, will have the better second half of the season.

Fantasy Impact: Posey may not be the top catcher in player raters on ESPN and Yahoo, but he is still the top option for the rest of the season, and will approach a .300 batting average with 55-60 extra-base hits. He has hits in nine of his last 10 games and has now scored a run in seven of his last 10 contests.

Buster Posey once again delivered in a game started by a LHP, providing three hits, including a double, in four at-bats.

Buster Posey got one hit today in his four plate appearances.

Fantasy Impact: Buster Posey is seeing the ball well, in his last three games he has four hits in 12 at-bats including two RBI. His power has gone to some foreign land as he has just one homer in June and is batting just .277 this season overall.

Buster Posey went 0-for-4 Monday against the Pirates during the team's 1-0 loss, snapping his six-game hitting streak.

Fantasy Impact: Prior to the 0-for, Posey had collected 12 hits over his last six games, including four multi-hit performances. This helped boost his average back in the .275 range, but it's still been a disappointing month after he showed signs of resurgence in May. His OPS of .781 remains well below his career mark of .853.

Buster Posey went 2-for-3 with two runs scored and an RBI on Monday against the Brewers. It was Posey's first multi-hit game in June.

Buster Posey finished 1-for-5 with a single and a run scored agaisnt the Cardinals on Friday. Posey only has a .262 batting average this season, .250 over the last week, but has three home runs over the last week and 20 extra-base hits for the season. He has a .782 OPS.

Fantasy Impact: There is no way that Posey continues to post a batting average in the mid-.260s, as he has never posted an average below .294 in a full season and has a .307 career average, and his boost in average will boost his overall ranking. Catcher is an offensively weak position, and Posey is still the top option at catcher, with Posey on pace for both 90 runs scored and 90 RBI. He is 0-for-2 with a strikeout against the Cardinals' starter on Saturday, Michael Wacha, and has a .716 OPS against right-handed pitchers this season.

Buster Posey had a monster series in Colorado over the weekend, going 6-for-13 with two homers, five runs scored, six RBI, and a steal.

San Francisco Giants C Buster Posey will get a standard day of rest on Wednesday versus the San Diego Padres. Trevor Brown will take on duties as starting catcher.

San Francisco Giants C Buster Posey was 1-for-3 with a sacrifice fly in Thursday's win over the San Diego Padres.

Fantasy Impact: Many consider Posey to be struggling lately since he isn't putting up monster stats every game. In his last six starts, he is 7-for-23 with three RBIs, which is better than some fantasy players at the moment. He is getting on base often, but the Giants have had some tough pitching matchups lately. Posey will pick it up again soon and you will be glad he is on your fantasy team.

Buster Posey was 0-for-4 against the Diamondbacks on Friday and is hitless in seven of his last 10 games. Posey has five doubles and a home run in May, posting a .261 batting average, and needs to heat up to regain his top spot at catcher. Posey has a .751 OPS this season.

Fantasy Impact: Although he was drafted in the first three rounds of most, if not all, fantasy leagues, Posey's 11 extra-base hits, 12 RBI, and 16 runs scored have provided a lackluster start to the season. Moreover, his .268 batting average is considerably lower than his .309 career average and he only has a .328 OBP. Posey has a .321 batting average with two doubles against the Diamondbacks' starter on Saturday, Patrick Corbin, and his .280 batting average away from home would make him part of a great Giants' stack.

Fantasy Impact: Posey is riding a three-game hitting slump where he is 0-for-13 at the plate. He is an elite player regardless of the slump and there is no reason to bench him at any point this season unless there is an injury.

Fantasy Impact: Fantasy owners and DFS players need to get Posey into their lineups today to take advantage of Coors Field.

This is more giving a nod to Trevor Brown for his two home run effort last night than the health of Buster Posey. It also doesn't hurt to give the best catcher in baseball extra days of rest.

Fantasy Impact: Extended day off hurts your lineup a bit, but don't be concerned over this situation. He should be ready for tomorrow unless he becomes the next Wally Pipp (sarcasm).

Buster Posey is just taking precautions after taking a foul ball to his toe. X-Rays are negative and Trevor Brown will take over catcher duties for tonight against the Colorado Rockies.

Fantasy Impact: Nothing to worry about with Posey; just replace him with your backup if you have one for tonight. Other than missing tonight's game, he will be back tomorrow.

Buster Posey is not in the Giants' lineup on Tuesday against the Rockies. Trevor Brown will start in his place.

Fantasy Impact: This is just the Giants taking a precaution with their best player. Posey is the top catcher in any league so you should thank the San Francisco Giants for keeping him healthy. Draft him as the top catcher in the draft. Make sure not to over-draft Posey because of the scarcity at the catcher position.

Buster Posey will be part of the first group of starters used by the San Francisco Giants in their exhibition opener on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact: The San Francisco Giants brought in new pitchers Jeff Samardzija and Johnny Cueto this offseason and it will be important for Posey to get plenty of work in with them. Posey's fantasy value largely leans on his offensive abilities as he hit at an average of .318 in the 2015 season, but working with new pitchers is a big part of the preseason.

San Francisco Giants C Buster Posey was 2-for-4 with a home run and double in the Giants' 7-4 win over the Colorado Rockies on Sunday. The 28-year-old All-Star provided more than half of the Giants runs while scoring three runs and collecting one RBI.

Fantasy Impact: Buster Posey is riding a modest eight-game hitting streak, but has been lacking the home run production for over a month. The last time Posey hit a home run was August 3rd against the Atlanta Braves. Despite the lack of power, Posey finally broke out of a short slump and is catching a little hot streak.

Posey has accumulated 14 home runs and 57 RBI so far, and is set to cruise past his 2014 totals of 22 HR and 89 RBI. Posey remains one of the best catchers in the MLB and perhaps the three days rest will increase Posey's production before the All-Star break.

Buster Posey went 0-for-4 on Opening Day with a sac-fly RBI being the only positive on his statline. Yesterday was not Posey's best day batting, but it is common for top players to need "warm-up" games before they start getting the hot bat.

Fantasy Impact: Don't let this game cause doubt on whether or not Posey should be your starting catcher. Posey is proven to be a solid hitter throughout the season and still one of the top catchers in the league. Another matchup against the Diamondbacks tonight could see Posey with a much better statline, expect more RBIs and home runs to come as he starts to get his groove back.
