| Pedro Alvarez Posted by MrWiseGuy Is this legit or just fools gold ? I recently picked him up in all of my leagues just as fliers. I was debating in posting about him earlier today and decided to hold off to see how he faired tonight versus Mike Minor, a left hander. He started off the year horrendously, going 1 for 24. Since then he has gone 11 for 33 with 4 homeruns. So I ask the board what is the expectation for Alvarez going forward ? Is he ownable in a 12 team mix league ? 10 team mix league ?

| .235 25 bombs 80 rbis... if they keep feeding him at bats. He should be useful in deep leagues. Reply Back to Top |

| He's terrible against lefties and their was talk prior to the year of making him into a first baseman. On that note, he hit a homer off Minor tonight... so that's a little encouraging. If he turn the corner and start hitting lefties at least average, he'll probably get the full load of at bats. Right now, he's still susceptible to a platoon. Reply Back to Top |
| Yep, low average, high power type of guy. If you need homers, he will give you that. Reply Back to Top |

| Looking good. I think the homer off the lefty, Minor, yesterday had to increase his confidence even more. Edit: Another hit off a left handed pitcher for an RBI that was absolutely scorched to right field. Credit to Beltran for hanging tough and staying in front of that ball, he's got a family to think about. This post was edited on 5/1 at 10:03 pm Reply Back to Top |
| 2 for 3 yesterday 2 for 3 today with Homerun number 7 Reply Back to Top |
| Needs to get his SB #s up to match my projections, but he's trending towards everything else. Reply Back to Top |
Posted by Rohan2Reed on 5/3 at 3:16 pm to MrWiseGuy Picked him up a couple days ago. Now whoever has Panda on their roster has to settle for Chris Johnson or Scott Rolen at 3B. Reply Back to Top Refresh |
