He's Got the Runs

     Colorado Rockies outfielder Dexter Fowler has got the runs! No, not the kind that keeps you strapped to the toilet for hours on end, but the kind that can make a big difference in any fantasy league. So far this season, Fowler is in the top 10 in runs scored and the best part is, he's owned in only 39% of Yahoo! leagues. Hitting in front of Carlos Gonzalez and Troy Tulowitzki should keep Fowler's run production steady for the rest of the season. Fowler won't put up eye-popping power numbers for a leadoff hitter (he only had 6 HR's last season), but if it's runs you need, then Fowler is your man. Tulowitzki does have injury concerns, but his absence from the Rockies lineup shouldn't affect Fowler's numbers. Last July, when Tulo only had 19 AB's, Fowler scored 21 runs, tallied 5 stolen bases and plated 11 RBI's. Get him now while the Rockies are hot!
