While Crawford has multiple hits in two of his last three games, he's still batting just .217/.254/.400 for the month of July. He's taken a dramatic step back against right-handed pitching this season, with his OPS against righties falling nearly 180 points from a year ago.","date":"Sat Jul 22"},"fullName":"Brandon Crawford","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Crawford's 21 home runs of 2015, in retrospect, look like a clear outlier; power is not his forte. His fantasy value is founded upon consistency, as he's an extremely strong bet to bat .260-.270 with 10-15 home runs, 5-8 stolen bases and runs scored and RBI totals in the 60-80 range. Crawford's playing time is also assured, which is another plus, as his best real-game asset - his elite defense - guarantees him a regular role as the Giants shortstop, fueling those annual counting-number expectations. He's a solid middle-infield choice in mixed leagues.","seasonId":2017,"date":"Mon Feb 27"},"playerRater30DAY":0,"playerRater15DAY":-0.1,"positionRank":25}
