+ Are Luis Garcia Jr., Kazuma Okamoto, and Foster Griffin for real? We’ve reached the end of June, and many players took a huge step forward throughout the month. However, some trends are more sustainable than others, and that’s what we’ll be analyzing in this piece. These three players have been exceptional as of late, but can they keep it up? Luis García Jr. has been one of the hottest players in baseball over the past month, and especially so over the past week.

+ Standout players worth highlighting in your points league. As we look at risers and fallers in points leagues, the focus should not just be on how players are performing, but what their role is.

Or did they get subbed out at the end of a game for defensive reasons?
