He's only hitting .190 in May, and does not have an extra base hit that has not been a home run since April 30. Hopefully he'll turn it around sooner rather than later, as fantasy owners are becoming increasingly frustrated with his production, or lack thereof.","date":"Sun May 19"},"fullName":"Yoenis Cespedes","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Many questioned the Athletics' four-year, $36 million investment in Cespedes last February, but his rookie campaign couldn't be quantified as anything other than a complete success. Despite missing 33 games with hand, wrist and hamstring injuries, he managed a No. 56 ranking on our Player Rater, and perhaps more importantly became one of three players to manage at least a .300 batting average with double-digit homers and steals after the All-Star break, joining Ryan Braun and Mike Trout. Cespedes' max-effort swing might make him susceptible to further aches and pains, but it also hints at greater power potential, and he seemed to improve as a base runner with experience, stealing 12 of his 16 bases after July 1. He also cut down on his swing-and-miss rate, which dropped from 32 percent before the All-Star break to 25 percent after, meaning he might have growth potential in 2013. Draft him at his 2012 earnings, leaving some profit potential.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Wed Feb 20"},"playerRater30DAY":2.9,"playerRater15DAY":1.5,"positionRank":55}
