Fantasy Analysis
Braun is starting to heat up at the plate after a slow start. With his 3-for-5 outing Thursday and 1-for-5 effort Friday, he has now hit safely in 10 of his last 11 games. He has six multi-hit games in that span. The NL Rookie of the Year is back. He was the fourth third basemen drafted in the first round of many leagues, more than any other position. His hitting line: .283-5-23-13-1 through the first five weeks -- and that's after hitting homers Thursday and Friday. But eight third basemen have more homers, 11 have a better batting average and 19 have crossed the plate more times. His 23 RBI is third at the position though, and after a quiet April, he's already starting to break out with a strong May. Keep the second-year slugger active. (Updated 05/03/2008).
