BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 23% of leagues
ANALYSIS: As if the defending American League champions (and owners of the AL's best current record) needed any more help, Shane Baz made his major league debut on Monday and was excellent. Tasked with facing a red-hot Blue Jays squad, the 22-year-old earned a win with five solid frames, allowing just two hits while striking out five and walking none. Unfortunately both of the hits were home runs, but it was an impressive effort all the same.
In his next turn, he'll have a much less intimidating opponent in the light-hitting Marlins on Sunday. Baz possesses fantasy ace potential long term and should be a popular pickup in the coming days. For the moment, he's still freely available in over three-quarters of Yahoo leagues.
