Fantasy Baseball: Can Garrett Jones Continue to Produce?
Garrett Jones started off the season well hitting .265 with nine runs, five home runs and seven RBI in April. Not rock-star numbers, but they were solid, considering where you drafted him.
Then can his May crash. Jones hit .179 for the month with five runs and one home run. He did salvage a little value with 10 RBI, but he wasnโt making his fantasy owners very happy.
Through the first two months he combined to hit .222. One of his main issues was the number of times he was striking out. Jones struck out every 3.75 at bats (36 strikeouts in 135 at-bats).
His strikeouts dipped to once every 5.82 at bats in June (11 strikeout in 64 at-bats) as his average rose to .297 for the month. Jones scored eight runs, hit a pair of home runs and drove in 11 runs. Weโd like to see a little more pop out of his bat, but at least he was back to meeting (or exceeding) expectations.
Heโs only had 20 at bats in July, but he has continued to hit well. He has just two strikeouts and is hitting .300 with four runs, a homer and four RBI.
Garrett trailed off in the second half last year, but was very productive in 2009 when he was called up in July. Frankly, the track record is not there to suggest whether or not he will finish the year strong.
I would suggest continuing to play him while he is hot.
