Fantasy Baseball

After a weekend break, Fantasy Baseball Insiders Tonight  is back with everything you need to know from Monday night’s action. Game No.

Here’s a look at some unheralded players who played well yesterday.

Scott Rolen, Cincinnati Reds

Rolen went 2-for-3 with three runs and a HR (five). He’s hitting .283.

Here’s a look at the two-start pitchers for week four.

Five Stars
Chris Carpenter: ATL, CIN
Yovani Gallardo: PIT, @SD
Roy Halladay: @SF, NYM
Josh Johnson: SD , WAS
Jered Weaver: CLE, @DET

Grade A

David Aardsma, Mariners

Aardsma should be considered in the same class as the elite closers. With this being said, we need to see how he reacts after he gives up some runs and blows a save. Aardsma had two saves during the week and still has yet to give up a run. He deserves the top spot.

Matt Lindstrom, Astros

Here’s a look at some unheralded players who played well yesterday.

Randy Wolf, Milwaukee Brewers

Wolf threw six scoreless innings as the Brewers pounded the Pirates. He improved to 2-1 with a 3.70 ERA.

It’s never too early to hit up a struggling owner in your league to try to fleece him or her out of a struggling player to help your team down the road. Here are some guys to target.

Catcher

It’s the end of the second week of the 2010 Major League Baseball season.

Production this week was near empty for these sluggers. Each of them is desperately trying to find a repairman for his mechanics.

1) OF Colby Rasmus, STL

The Cardinal outfielder has been suffering. Hitless in his last 15 plate appearances, Rasmus could only provide a single walk to help his team this week.

Rasmus had a .000 AVG this past week, which dropped his season total to .179 AVG.

Game No. 17 of 162 in Fantasy Baseball Insiders’ summer-long journey featured a revived Jose Reyes and an impressive pitching performance from this week’s hottest pickup: Mike Pelfrey .

Game No. 17 – Chicago Cubs vs. New York Mets

Mike Pelfrey dazzled the Cubs Tuesday night, allowing no runs on three hits and three walks in seven innings. He also struck out six en route to his third win in as many starts. The 26-year-old now has a 0.86 ERA and 1.00 WHIP with a 16:8 K:BB ratio through 21 innings.

The question all fantasy managers are asking now is: How good is Mike Pelfrey ?

Matt Holliday is looking like one of the best hitters in the game. Ike Davis made his big league debut. Could Brandon Morrow be turning the corner?

Let’s look at 10 of the biggest stories from yesterday’s games.
