High Value OF

Billy Hamilton-Cincinnati Reds (3,100): Hamilton has hit safely in four straight and in six of his last seven games and is always a threat to steal enough bases to turn in a big game when he gets on base.  He is 9-26 (.346) since the break and is definitely benefiting from Joey Votto heating up behind him when he hits second and Votto hits third.  If he’s #2 against Archie Bradley tonight, I like him a lot at this price. 

Leonys Martin-Seattle Mariners (3,100): Martin is 5-19 (.263) since the break for the Mariners and hit a pair of homers yesterday including a walkoff shot against the White Sox.  He has three multi-hit games in his last seven contests and makes an intriguing sleeper play against Marco Estrada coming off the DL for the Blue Jays tonight. 

Adam Eaton-Chicago White Sox (3,000): Eaton went 3-3 with a double and a run scored last night in the White Sox 2-1 loss to Detroit.  He is now 10-29 (.345) since the All Star break with a stolen base and four doubles.  He isn’t going to produce a ton of power, but he’s starting to get on base enough to be a nice threat at the top of the White Sox order.

Brock Holt-Boston Red Sox (2,800): Holt lost his hitting streak last nigh but did walk and score to still put up 6+ fantasy points for the tenth game in a row. H3’s still 12-34 (.353) in July with a pair of homers and a very productive part of a high-scoring lineup in a good matchup. If you have to spend under 3K, Holt is one of the top names to consider. ∗∗

Steven Souza Jr.-Tampa Bay Rays (2,500): As one of the few right-handed bats the Rays deploy as part of their OF rotation, Souza will likely start tonight against lefty Sean Manea in Oakland. Souza is 5-25 since the All Star break, but I think he’ll be a good value in a favorable matchup if he starts tonight.∗∗

Joey Rickard-Baltimore Orioles (2,100): Depending on how his X-Rays come back, Rickard could be out for a while, or he could be hitting leadoff for the Orioles as they take on the Indians. If Rickard is in the lineup, he’ll be a great bargain play since he has hit safely in four straight and is hitting over .300 since the start of June. If hitting leadoff-
