Rockies outfielder Carlos Gonzalez isn't off to a hot start. He's only hitting .257, but fantasy owners are mainly concerned that he only has one homerun so far this season. Cargo hit 34 dingers in 2010 and some fear that he's begun his sophomore slump.
Let's not get ahead of ourselves here. Last April, Gonzalez only hit 3 HR's and plated 17 RBI's. There's still over a week left in April and he already has 12 RBI's and 3 SB's. In the last 7 days, Gonzalez has 5 of those RBI's, his only HR and 2 of those SB's. He's heating up and a sophomore slump seems to be more myth than reality. Don't be duped into trading him away for anything less than a first rounder.
