His batting average has dipped to .277, and Fielder hasn't cleared the fence in his past nine games, but his OPS still stands at a robust .929. Even when he's not at his best at the dish, Fielder is still worth plugging into your lineup on a daily basis.","date":"Mon May 20"},"fullName":"Prince Fielder","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"One of the game's premier power sources, Fielder's 258 home runs since the beginning of 2006 rank third-best and 754 RBIs fifth-best in the majors. But what has made Fielder, now 28, such a valuable commodity in fantasy is his soaring rate of contact. The son of Cecil Fielder, who had a 22.2 percent career strikeout rate, Prince whiffed a career-low 12.2 percent of the time in 2012, a number his father never came close to attaining. That helped explain his career-best .313 batting average, and it's a skills improvement that might potentially elevate him into the first round in mixed leagues considering he bats in the heart of an improved lineup with Miguel Cabrera, who has a lifetime .395 on-base percentage, slotted ahead of him. Despite playing a deep position, Fielder is the kind of elite slugger worth his price tag.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Mon Feb 11"},"playerRater30DAY":2.5,"playerRater15DAY":-0.4,"positionRank":7}
