Let’s take a look at three AL Central hitters that have really improved their game, and your fantasy points, from last year.
Paul Konerko- 1B- Chicago White Sox
Paulie is a huge part of the resurgence of the South Siders this season. Hitting .302 with 28 homers and 78 RBI, Konerko has met last year’s homers total and is only ten RBI away completing the same task. In standard leagues, Konerko has more points than pre-season studs at his position, such as Adrian Gonzalez and Adam Dunn (1B and OF eligible).
Alex Rios- OF- Chicago White Sox
Rios didn’t have a bad season in ’09, but it wasn’t great either. Alex has already matched his homer totals (17) from last year and is on his way to topping last year’s RBI (65 this year compared to 71 in 2009) total. His average is way up. Rios is batting .299 in 2010 from only .247 in 2009. He has also matched last year’s stolen base total with 24 swipes.
Delmon Young- OF- Minnesota Twins
Delmon is finally playing like everyone thought he would. After a trade that got him out of Tampa Bay, Young is producing. Hitting .319, 14 homers and 84 RBI, Young has topped last year’s totals already (.284/ 12/ 60).
