ANALYSIS: At 27 years old, Tampa Bay Rays first baseman Ji-Man Choi has come out of nowhere to be a viable fantasy asset down the stretch. He has made an impression in the second half with seven homers, 24 RBI and a .290 batting average. Choi’s success is due in part to a 44.7% hard-hit rate contributing to a .517 slugging. Choi will even bring recent success into the upcoming schedule. In the last 14 days, he hit four homers with a .316 average.
Choi will spend the week on the road but he could hardly get a couple of better destinations. He will play in Texas before traveling to Toronto. Choi will go up against four righties and three lefties. He is a definite streaming option. Play him against righties as he is hitting .288 with eight homers and 37 RBI in 146 at-bats. Contrarily, Choi only has a .158 batting average with one homer and two RBI in 19 at-bats against lefties.
