Last Call On Cameron Maybin

Cameron Maybin has four games under his belt after being out with a wrist injury for nearly two months.

Analysis: Maybin has made a significant impact in his return. He has 4 stolen bases, 1 home run, 4 runs, 5 hits and 4 RBI in his first four games back. This is really good news considering Maybin was batting under .100 through ten games in April prior to the injury. We have to remember that Maybin has averaged 9 home runs and 33 stolen bases over the past two years… so we know he can contribute.

The Maybin hype is just getting started so it is time to pluck the twenty-six year old up off the wire now if you are in need of some speed and power potential. The runs should come with consistency after he climbs higher in the San Diego batting order although it has not been a problem thus far. His batting average should not be much of a concern going forward. He is a career .248 hitter and the sub .100 batting average was due to an extremely low BABIP. At the moment Maybin is available in 70-80% of fantasy leagues.
