I spotted Fontenot from a quality spreadsheet I ran. Here his compare to Kinsler. Used my pts game (R+RBI+TB+BB+(SBx2) for compare.
The only thing he needs is playing time. Watched the Cubs yesterday and the coach said that he and Lou had targeted getting Fontenot more ABs. He is off to a hot start. Unless they pick up another infielder (see Lou's discussion MLB on Cubs page), no real competition to keep Fontenot from playing full time. His left/right production solid. As far as I can tell he is not on anyone's radar. The bottom line just doubles Fontenot's 2008 (since ABs come out about where I would compare to Kinsler). I broke 2008 pre and post AllStar to reflect his progression.

Great stuff here! Not sure if I'd put him in the league of Kinsler and Piniella always finds a way to mess with younger players who aren't fully established, but I like Fontenot as a late round sleeper.

If you want me to look at your team, post the team. Don't post a link to another site where the team is.
Have you given me all the info I need to judge your team? The number of teams in the league is a good start for the big overall questions.
Is your league H2H? Roto?
I don't know who's on your waivers. Don't just ask me who you should pick up. Give me names to choose from.
If you only have one team, post your team in your signature with the league parameters.
I don't know every single matchup for next week, so if you want me to choose a player for the following week and you think the matchups are important, tell me who they're facing.

Piniella is insane and is seriously considering giving the starting job to Miles.

Compare to Kinsler just to have a standard. Fontenot's projected points are 490 to Kinsler's 538--pretty darn good. Miles off to .235/.188/.188 start--to be expected. Even the Sweetness can't be blind to what they are doing at the plate. (Thanks for comment.)
