We also have another do-nothing player. That is bad enough to potentially tank that whole category. So, Zubac should fit into a team built that way right? He also takes up one of your four available center spots.

About Logan Sharp. Recommended for you. Currently, Altuve has the major league lead with 10 stolen bases. Last season, he was one of just seven players to steal at least 30 bags. It could be said right now that the MLB is going through a bit of a steals drought as of late, effectively making the stat more valuable in terms of fantasy. This total is the greatest deviation of any stat tracked on the player rater.
My argument here is not that Altuve does not deserve the number one spot, simply his stolen base total makes it easier for him to obtain that spot. Because few players posses the ability to swipe bags like Altuve can, his elite hitting skills make him a true five category contributor. However, unlike stolen bases, stats like home runs, RBIs, runs and average are quite prevalent throughout the league.
Arenado is slashing a ridiculous. Knowing the young third basemen plays half of his games in Coors Field really gives him an advantage that other players do not have. Although his line dips a bit on the road, he is still slashing. The Player Rater will tell you that. That's why the rater is superior to all other ranking systems, most of which count percentages as a total number rather than a ratio with those numerator and denominator things.
Pay attention to the denominator, and you can become the dominator. Oh, snap! That might be the first single off my album. Monitoring recent trends: Oftentimes, by midseason, your roster has become stagnant, and finding a difference-maker on the waiver wire can be nearly impossible.
But if you click on averages for the past 15 days and see a name that surprises you, there is a good chance he isn't owned even though he is producing. In the NBA, any player can blow up on a given night, but two weeks of productivity typically means something. Sometimes it's capitalizing upon another player's injury, sometimes it's coming back from his own injury and sometimes it's simply proving to the coach that he deserves minutes.
The rater will tell you who's been best for the past 15 days overall, as well as in specific categories. If you see a free agent on that list and need waiver-wire help, pay heed. Sorting by averages: It's easy to forget halfway through the season that a player who has been hurt for the past month was blazing when healthy. That's why examining average stats is helpful. If a mid-value player who has missed half the season is about to come back and was tearing it up beforehand, his superior average statistics still will be accounted for if you sort by averages.
Pick him up when he returns and capitalize upon the fact that most will look at his overall stats and not notice the effect he can have on a fantasy team on a per-game basis. Addressing needs: Need boards and steals without taking a hit in free-throw percentage? Well, look no further than the trusty Player Rater, in which you can sort by category and see which players positively contribute in whichever combination of categories your team needs.
This tactic is simpler than looking at aggregate stats, because it's not always clear how much of an effect adding 1. But if you see how much a guy with that many steals helps you over someone at league average, then you get a better idea of how making a trade or waiver-wire addition for a specific need will actually help your team.
Worst in a given period: It can be difficult to tell how cold a fringe player really is over the past few weeks when you see it only one bad night at a time. But when you click on "worst" and day total or average, and you see one of your fantasy starters on the list, it's probably safe to say you can bench him until he gets his act together.
Channing Frye is the sixth-worst player according to the rater, which could point to the fact that it looks like LaMarcus Aldridge and Joel Przybilla will be the primary big men for the Portland Trail Blazers.
Keep in mind, though, that Frye is just another Przybilla injury away getting big minutes, and with his efficient percentages from the center position, he could be big at some point of the season.
I love Granny Danger, er Danny Granger , who is ninth overall on the Player Rater after his point, rebound, five-3, two-steal and two-block statement game to start the season.
