Matsui, Cano, Paulino beginning to heat up

Keep your eyes out for Hideki Matsui and Robinson Cano of the Yankees, and Ronny Paulino of the Pirates. All three have begun monster tears in the past 10 days that have their averages and power numbers rising.

While Cano's numbers have been climbing steadily for some time, he recently has found his power stroke. Cano is a young player with immense talent to target in any league, but especially keeper leagues. See if his owner still will offer him as a "buy-low" player, but at this point with his average over .300 and his stroke going well, that might be a stretch. Still worth an acquisition regardless, though.

Matsui's found his power numbers increase as well and now is hovering around the .300 mark. Given that his "year to date" stats are not all that impressive (some owners do in fact only look at that!), you might get him at a discount. He's not a youngster anymore, but he will be a proven commodity in your outfield for the next two to three seasons.

Ronny Paulino was expected to be a tremendous asset to any team this year given his position (catcher) and the fact that he led the majors in batting average this spring training while flexing his homerun hitting muscles. Well, he might just finally be finding that stroke. He is most-definitely a buy-low candidate, so find out who owns him and lowball for him immediately!
