BALLER MOVE: Add in 15+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 4% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Gabriel Arias, the 24-year-old super-utility man just made five consecutive starts after receiving limited playing time in the first two weeks of the season.
Arias is riding a solid .314/.333/.543 line with one home run, one swiped bag and seven RBI. In those five consecutive starts, he has hit five extra-base hits.

Even though Arias will have limits on his playing time due to Brayan Rocchio usually handling shortstop and Tyler Freeman and Ramon Laureano handling right and center field, respectively. However, if Arias can continue to produce well at the plate, he could make a case for a starting role.
He should be considered in deeper leagues, especially if you lack positional flexibility, as he should have multiple positional eligibility on most websites.
