Fantasy Analysis
Cust got off to a slow start this season and, while his average remains an embarrassing .235, his power swing has really started to come around lately. In Head-to-Head Fantasy leagues that penalize strikeouts, Cust is killing Fantasy owners. He is one of the most streaky hitters in the majors and should only be starting in larger mixed leagues when he is on a monster tear. (Updated 07/14/2008).
