Steve Pearce has logged limited time at first base this season for Davis. If Ishikawa remains with the Orioles he could spell Davis more often than Pearce has.","date":"Wed Jun 19"},"fullName":"Chris Davis","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"After spending parts of four seasons trying to patch up some of the many holes in his swing, Davis finally made the necessary adjustments in year number five. Most notably, he made massive strides against breaking pitches, hitting 14 home runs off curveballs and sliders combined in 2012 after not hitting a single curve or slider out the previous two seasons combined. Davis was still every bit as strikeout-prone and walk-averse as ever, though, so he'll always be less valuable in points-based leagues that penalize for K's and he'll never be mistaken for a batting champion. This is out-and-out chasing power, and it's doing so only at either the first base or outfield positions, now that he has lost the potentially more attractive third base eligibility. Davis has his flaws -- he had a wide home/road split last year and can be streaky due to his penchant for strikeouts -- but he's a valuable power source if you can bolster your rotisserie team batting average elsewhere.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Wed Feb 20"},"playerRater30DAY":12.6,"playerRater15DAY":4.3,"positionRank":1}
