SS Alex Gonzalez down, Keppinger Steps In
Posted on March 2nd, 2008 by dchase
Jeff Keppinger (UTIL-Cin.) has put up a very quiet .309/.367/.439 career line. His production is no fluke either. His minor league .321/.374/.420. in 2368 PA has been just as outstanding.
With A-Gone out (broken knee), Keppinger might finally get an opportunity to play everyday at SS. Given his ballpark, position elig., and minor league track record, Keppinger should be on everybody’s fantasy radar.
I love Keppinger as well, very astute pick. I just discussed him on my radio show. Great contact, good BB rate, and a .300 average is close to certain.
