Over his last seven appearances, he has notched at least one hit in five of them, though his slash line still sits at a middling .247/.304/.376 over 85 at-bats.","date":"Sat May 11"},"fullName":"Ryan Roberts","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Roberts surprised in 2011, finishing one homer and two steals short of a 20-20 season. Perhaps lost in the numbers was an unrepeatable line-drive rate. Sure enough, Roberts' production fell, leading to a change of address as the Diamondbacks shipped him to the Rays. As usual, Tampa has a bunch of moving parts, which means Roberts will get playing time in a few different places, though his days as a regular are in jeopardy unless Tampa opts to play Ben Zobrist in the outfield so Roberts could win the job at second. Starting the year with dual eligibility at second and third base is a nice benefit, making Roberts a nice late or reserve pick with playing-time upside.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Wed Feb 20"},"playerRater30DAY":1.2,"playerRater15DAY":1.4,"positionRank":24}
