10 Fantasy Baseball Players to Buy and Sell for Week 12
Trevor Story has been one of the hottest hitters in baseball over the past month, much to the delight of his fantasy owners. Should we be buying or selling the Colorado Rockies' stud shortstop?

Buy Rougned Odor

It's been tough for Rougned Odor this year. After the 2016 and 2017 seasons in which he cleared the 30-homer plateau -- 33 and 30 -- he has hit just 1 bomb all season for the Rangers.

One homer in 173 plate appearances. That's hard to believe. He has a .309 slugging percentage, with an average (.217) and on-base percentage (.292) that is in line with his career numbers. He has a wRC+ of 61 this season, which is abysmal.

So why am I suggesting now might be a good time to buy? Well, it's small, but Odor has improved his walk rate this season, from a career 4.4% to 7.5%. He has four walks in his past four games and seven walks in June.

I'm not telling you to bet the farm on Odor, but he'd be a guy to target as a throw-in in any deals you may conduct over the next week or two. His power could return and provide a little boost in the middle infield if some of these plate discipline numbers continue to trend in the right direction.
