Fantasy Baseball Shake-Up: Cade Horton’s Surprise Arrival and Evan Carter’s Triumphant Return Could Change Everything!
Daniel Schneeman – 2B/3B/SS/OF, CLE: 20% rostered
(PLAYING TIME OPPORTUNITY, HOT STREAK)
A few weeks ago, Schneeman popped up on a leaderboard I made of bat speed risers, but he wasn’t playing enough at the time for me to pay much attention to it. Now he’s started ten of the last 13 games and is hitting .328 with four home runs and 10 RBI in his last 60 at-bats. I’m not sure how long this lasts, but I’ll take a small gamble on a hitter showing a slightly new level of talent who’s in the middle of a hot streak. Another multi-position infielder is Josh Smith – 3B/SS/OF, TEX (27% rostered). Even with Evan Carter up, Smith is still starting pretty much every day. He’ll play some CF, some 1B, and some SS/3B when the team gives Corey Seager and Josh Jung a breather. I know it feels risky to roster a “bench” player, but Smith is a valuable piece for the Rangers and often hits leadoff when he’s in the lineup, so he can bring plenty of fantasy value.
