Player News

Alexi Amarista homers, doubles twice in win | 05/15/2013 4:05 PM

News

Alexi Amarista homered, doubled twice and scored three times Wednesday in the Padres' 8-4 win over the Orioles.

Rotoworld.com

Impact

Amarista has homered in back-to-back starts. He has surprising pop for a little guy, with eight homers, six triples and 25 doubles in 404 major league at-bats. Unfortunately, he still hasn't managed to reach base consistently. The Padres will keep using him as a backup at second base and in center field, leaving him little fantasy value.

Alexi Amarista knocks in four runs | 04/17/2013 1:32 AM

News

Alexi Amarista singled three times and drove in four runs versus the Dodgers on Tuesday.

Rotoworld.com

Impact

Amarista is supposed to head back to the bench Wednesday with Chase Headley coming off the DL, but he made his case for additional playing time tonight. The plan is for him to back up Jedd Gyorko at second base, but he is the better defender of the two and it's not like Gyorko is tearing it up at the plate (.240, 0 HR, 6 RBI in 49 AB). Gyorko will have to turn it on soon to give himself some job security.
