Stock Rising- Revere

Ben Revere has 14 hits in his last eight games played.

Analysis: Ben Revere is not the most well rounded fantasy outfielder but he has been getting the job done for over three years now. Thus far this season Revere is hitting .299 with 10 stolen bases and 14 runs scored. He ranks 3rd among major league outfielders in stolen bases, 20th in batting average and 21st in runs scored. He is currently the 17th best fantasy outfielder this season.

His numbers thus far should not come as a surprise. Revere is a career .286 hitter with 106 stolen bases in just 366 career games. If he stays healthy he will hit the 40-50 stolen base mark. Revere does lack extra base power but he really pulls his weight in steals and batting average. Keep in mind that Revere did miss half of the season last year but he still managed to hit .305 and swipe 22 bags.

Ben Revere is available in 20-50% of fantasy leagues. Revere is a reliable fantasy option in the stolen base and batting average departments compared to Coco Crisp, Carl Crawford and BJ Upton.
