1B/OF Alec Burleson (25% Owned), Cardinals
Alec Burleson of the St. Louis Cardinals is another player to watch. The first baseman/outfielder has been on fire, hitting .413 with three home runs and four doubles in his last 13 games. His strong performance is supported by a 45.2% hard-hit rate and a 33.3% line drive rate, making him a prime candidate for fantasy teams, especially with the Cardinals' lineup improving.
SP Chris Paddack (20% Owned), Twins
Chris Paddack of the Minnesota Twins has demonstrated resilience and skill, particularly in a standout eight-inning performance against the Guardians. With a strong strikeout-to-walk ratio and a recent history of quality starts, Paddack offers reliable pitching depth for fantasy rosters.

SP Taj Bradley (48% Owned), Rays
Taj Bradley of the Tampa Bay Rays has shown promise despite a high ERA, thanks to his strikeout capabilities and an encouraging xFIP. Since returning from an injury, he's maintained a strong strikeout rate and WHIP, making him a potential asset for fantasy teams.
OF Luis Matos (48% Owned), Giants
Luis Matos, an outfielder for the San Francisco Giants, is making waves with a recent RBI streak and exceptional contact rates that have contributed to a .324 average, two home runs, and three doubles over just 35 plate appearances. His recent move toward the middle of the batting order and takeover in center field further boost his fantasy value.
