He's been ridiculous recently. Loving the production in the one league I managed to snag him in.
Is this just a streak where he's finally hitting....because it has been unreal lately. In a H2H league he could easily win you SB every week.
48 SB on the year in 97 games
13 SB in his last 8 games (including 3, 2 and 4 in his last 3 games)
In those 8 games he's been on base 14 times (and again...stolen 13 bases)
5 Ks in last 8 games (3 came in one game)
5 BB in last 5 games
His pace is actually pretty much the same as last year (57 SB in 114 games).

He faced Pittsburgh, who isn’t good this yr (Gerrit Cole).
Wacha, who’s struggling.
Leake, who again…isn’t good
And Jamie Garcia.
No doubt the dude is a SB machine, but he can’t get on base consistently. Dudes just hot I think, but helps that he’s batting at the top of the lineup now. He went through a stretch of 14 games where he didn’t steal a base back in July, and I think that really killed his fantasy appeal and people dropped and forgot. Now he’s climbing up and hitting to a “high” rate. When you hit 0/4 so often, 1/4 makes your average rise and that’s what he was doing.
Ride the wave, don’t expect a 280hitter tho.

I might agree with you if his average wasn't over .300 in the last month. That's a fairly large sample size (96 ABs). I do agree it is a streak, and he won't keep up the torrid pace, but I think he can keep up a partial of it, maybe keep the avg at .260-.265, and then keep producing the runs and SB at a high enough rate to be worth rostering.

He’s never hit over 255 (this yr) on a full yr. I think he’s just hot, maybe he settles into a 260 hitter. He’s played Milwaukee, Atlanta, Arizona, San Fran, SDP, Cards, Pits, and Cards again this month. Not really the strongest opponents. 15 of the 24 games were against bottom feeders.
I personally think he’s a 260avg, 300OBP, 55-60SB guy, and right now he’s hot. Players in baseball get hot for a month. If you take his last 2 months he’s hitting 243….

Jankowski has been doing that decently well for me in a couple other leagues
