Fantasy Analysis
Kendall was right back in the lineup on Friday night and Fantasy owners need not worry about him. He's having a pretty productive season and appears to be benefiting from the team's decision to bat him ninth, behind the pitcher. He may not hit a home run all season and will kill your slugging percentage, but he likely won't kill your batting average and should produce a decent OBP. (Updated 05/09/2008).
