● A.J. Pierzynski came through in the clutch, delivering a game-winning triple for the Red Sox and finishing 2-for-5 at the plate. Pierzynski doesn't score many runs or hit many home runs, but he's an above-average hitter who's in the lineup almost everyday. He currently has a nine-game hitting streak and his 26 RBI are the second-most among catchers in baseball (behind only Kurt Suzuki), so while he has very little upside, the veteran catcher makes for a dependable fantasy play. He's currently available in a majority of fantasy leagues.
