Power for Speed, Rebuilding a post All Star Break team.

The All Star represents more than just watching MLB's elite duking it out or home field advantage. It marks the end of many streaks and the beginning of many slumps, or vice versa.

I decided to shift my strategy, stemming from managing my roto league and seeing a 4 point drop in my HR rankings, I realized I have 3 power batters are either hurt, slumping or just plain streaky. (Torii Hunter,David Wright and Jermaine Dye) Of course I don't plan to just "ride it out". I'm rummaging through the free agency and found that it's littered with Speed Demons. I'm gonna own R, S, and I always choose players with a 300+ BA, but sometimes, with guys like Dexter Fowler, the numbers are so good a sub 300 is balances off as long as I have a guy like Miguel Montero batting 563 in the last week.

Speed Demons to Pick Up ASAP.
Andrew McCutchen
