Braves rookie phenom/shortstop/TV dinner mogul Dansby Swanson was 2-for-2 last night with his fourth home run and two RBI. Daaaaaaamn, B! YES! Keep doing this. If you held onto Swanson this long (especially in a redraft leagues) you deserve what is happening to you right now. What is happening is Dansby is hitting .360 with 4 runs, 2 homers and 6 RBI in the past week! When your draft day sleeper is finally making you look smart, but most people have already forgot. Sure, he's still hitting just .201, but these are the kind of things you ignore when you have blind faith and are looking to ride the rookie train to some fantasy fame. I attribute some of this to the cleansing therapy we've been taking together. It's pretty simple, bad vibes--bad, good vibes--good. Harness the good energy, block out the bad. Pretty easy, right? Also, let's just meditate in this sweat lodge for 12 hours and have a "vision" about how not to strike out as much. After hitting just .156 in April, Dansby is hitting .286 in May. He's also doubled his OBP, SLG% and has drawn twice as many walks as he did last month. Dan's be good like that! He's available in little over half of fantasy leagues right now and if Swanson happens to be out there on waivers in your league, this might be your last chance to grab him before the hype returns. Trust me, this kid's gonna be a star! Ha-cha-cha!
