Smith makes for a sneaky pickup right now in deeper mixed leagues as the A's are slated to face 16 right-handers in a row and the next four are in a great hitting park against the Rangers.","date":"Sun Jun 16"},"fullName":"Seth Smith","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Smith's power improved a tick despite moving from the thin air in Coors Field to the cavernous O.Co. Coliseum. It is likely he falls back some this season, which means it is even more important that an increased strikeout rate was a blip. As is, Smith is best deployed as a fantasy reserve since his playing time will be dictated by the health of his teammates. If someone believes Smith's power is for real and anticipates an improved batting average, let them have him. There's a bunch of alternate choices that are either safer or offer more upside.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Wed Feb 20"},"playerRater30DAY":1.2,"playerRater15DAY":-1.7,"positionRank":61}
