BALLER MOVE: Add in 15+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 31% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Perhaps it's because he plays for the Tigers, but Zach McKinstry is another player whose stellar performance is flying under the radar this season. He sports a .291/.410/.444 slash with four home runs, six doubles, and eight stolen bases. That includes some truly outstanding numbers, like a .296 xBA, .395 xwOBA, .475 xSLG, 10.1% barrel rate, and a 16.4% walk rate.
Zach McKinstry game-tying homer!

The clear downside here is that McKinstry is strictly a platoon player at the moment. He has only eight plate appearances against left-handed pitchers this season. Still, that leaves him with the strong side of the platoon, and McKinstry compensates for his ever-present pinch-hit risk by hitting leadoff against right-handed pitchers. As an added bonus, McKinstry is currently eligible at four different positions on Yahoo - 2B/3B/SS/OF.
