Fantasy Analysis
Delgado now has a seven-game hit streak and has raised his average from .194 to .233 while hitting 10-for-27 (.370) during the streak. If he continues to hit, he won't remain in the seven spot for long with the Mets, but you all know how much of a streaky hitter he can be. For now, only use him in deeper mixed and NL-only formats.
