Fantasy Analysis
Rowand is 4-for-10 (.400) with five RBI during a three-game hitting streak. He is starting to get hot at the plate again after running into a bit of a cold spell in late July. Rowand is no longer in Philadelphia and we expected his numbers to drop in 2008, as they have. Rowand is at best a No. 4 Fantasy OF in mixed leagues. (Updated 08/06/2008).
