What' with Ty Wigginton this year?...The man has 8 homers in 16 games...and a .302 average...Anyone believe in this guy?

April isn't over yet so we'll see if he can keep it up.

Yeah, but even a percentage of that and he is headed for a career year no matter how he slows down...I mean he wasn't even on my sleeper radar...

That's true and most fantasy leagues he can be used as a 2nd baseman.

If he were to continue the season on pace (which he won't) he will finish with 75 homeruns and 188 RBIs. But since he is not Barry Bonds during the 2001 season, that is not possible.

Wigginton is a tough player in the fact that he will always give 110% effort. He can also play multiple positions so his fantasy value is even more helpful. However, in the longrun...his offensive production will be limited. I don't care what he's doing now, I watched him for 2 full seasons and his max ability I'd say is about .280, 20-25 HRs, 80 RBI. Not bad at all but not an all-star by any means.

Actually, those statistics could be All-Star potential. That would only be if there wasn't a better third-baseman in the AL. Sorry, Ty Wigginton, but Alex Rodriguez stole your spot for the next four years.
