As the MLB season resumes after the All-Star break, fantasy managers are encouraged to reassess their rosters and consider key additions. Notable players to target include Ivan Herrera from the St. Louis Cardinals, who boasts impressive stats with a .320 batting average and 923 OPS. His recent activation from the IL signals that he could be a valuable asset at catcher, especially given his potential for power and speed.

Meanwhile, Colt Keith of the Detroit Tigers is seeing increased playing time and has shown promise as a multi-position player with substantial power upside. He has been hitting well since moving to the leadoff position, making him a potential steal for fantasy teams. Jorge Polanco from the Seattle Mariners is another player on the rise, displaying consistent power numbers and RBI opportunities in a favorable batting order.

Atlanta's success has led to some intriguing fantasy baseball pickups, notably Grant Holmes and AJ Smith-Shawver. Holmes is currently 41% owned, boasting an impressive strikeout rate, and has shown significant depth in his games, having recently pitched well against strong teams like the Dodgers and Minnesota. While there are concerns about his long-term viability, he's a prime candidate to add to your roster while he's hot.

Smith-Shawver, also an Atlanta Brave, has been solid as well, currently owned by just 21% of the leagues. His recent performances, including a stellar outing against Cincinnati, indicate he has potential for short-term gains. His next matchup against Pittsburgh looks favorable, making him an attractive addition for fantasy players looking for upside in the pitching category.
