Fantasy Analysis
It appears that when Bourn steals one base, he steals another. He's stolen two bases in each of the last three games in which he's had a steal. But the steals have been sporadic in the big scheme of things. He's simply not getting on base enough to steal bases regularly and that's his biggest asset to Fantasy owners. In head-to-head leagues, it's recommended that Fantasy owners reserve Bourn until he starts to get on base more often. (Updated 05/09/2008).
