Will probably look like a bit of a late-comer jumping on the bandwagon, but I like Edwin Encarnacion this year. Especially where he was available in drafts. Toronto seems committed to him, and he could have a nice return on investment for fantasy.

I agree. I got him for $6 (equivalent to 15th round pick in a 12 team league). Couldn't be happier with how it's turning out. Being given full-time DH at-bats could allow him to put up a huge season. Even had 2 swipes last night.

Looks like Aviles might have settled in at the leadoff spot while Ellsbury is down. She see a bump in value.

I gotta agree here. Just needs a small boost in power to see a nice jump in fantasy utility. Plus, better players around him gives him more chances with runners on.
