[BigSpoon]

2-4 for a RBI. Up to a robust .227 average now. Most importantly a beastly .500 post All-Star break average.

Fantasy Analysis | August 1, 2013 7:42 am Josh Hamilton thriving without Pujols

by Nando Di Fino | Senior Fantasy Writer
Angels outfielder Josh Hamilton, mired in a season-long slump that has produced career-worst numbers, (.226 average, 16 home runs, .702 OPS), has quietly gone on a nice run since Albert Pujols went down with a foot injury.
In the five games since the team lost Pujols, Hamilton has hit .300 with two home runs, eight RBI, and a 1.041 OPS. It may just be Hamilton finally breaking out of his funk, but it could be the lineup shift benefitting the 32-year-old.

[dynamite140]

With pujols out, he should start getting close to .250.
