Moustakas is finally living up to the potential he had coming out of the minor leagues four years ago. Last season, he hit a career-low .212 with 15 home runs, 54 RBI and 45 runs.

Not exactly fantasy relevant.

He is, however, fantasy relevant this season, hitting .356 with three home runs, nine RBI and 19 runs scored. Moustakas is second among third baseman with a .942 OPS and is second in the entire league, behind only Mike Trout, with his 19 runs.

That’s tremendous value for a guy who had an ADP of 316.3 before the season according to Fantasy Pros.
