| A.J. Ellis continues to heat up |
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com
(5/11/13) Dodgers catcher A.J. Ellis continued his turnaround Friday against Miami, going 3 for 4 for his fourth multi-hit game in the last six.
Ellis had a double and two singles, including one for an RBI in the eighth inning to cut the deficit to one. That was all for the Dodgers, who dropped their eighth game in a row, 5-4. Ellis struck out once in the game.
He has raised his batting average to .290, thanks to a strong showing in the month of May. Ellis was batting .250 on April 30, but is hitting .393 with one home run, two RBI and three walks to just two strikeouts in 28 at-bats.

(5/5/13) Dodgers catcher A.J. Ellis pushed his hitting streak to three games and scored twice during Los Angeles' 10-9 loss at San Francisco on Saturday night. Ellis went 2 for 5 with a solo homer -- his second of the season and first since April 10 at San Diego -- to halt a seven-game stretch without an extra-base hit.
He also pulled into a tie with the Giants' Buster Posey for most walks among catchers in the majors with 16 to contribute to a solid .386 on-base percentage. Saturday also marked the second straight game he hit out of the No. 5 spot in the lineup; he is now 8 for 15 (.533) with two RBI and five walks from that position.

| A.J. Ellis was a surprisingly productive Fantasy option -- particularly in Head-to-Head leagues -- at the beginning of 2013. Long an on-base specialist in the minors, the 31-year-old's high walk rate appeared to translate in his first year of regular major-league duty, leading to a .413 on-base percentage in his first 62 games. But over his final 71 games, his walks were cut in half, leading to a .335 on-base percentage that, when combined with a .254 batting average and .406 slugging percentage, wasn't particularly useful in Fantasy. So was it just a slump? Maybe. But Ellis was a minor-leaguer into his 30s for a reason. Maybe once major-league pitchers figured out his strike zone, he became an easy target for their superior stuff. In leagues that reward on-base percentage, Ellis is still an intriguing Fantasy option, but given his lack of pedigree, the way he tailed off in the second half last year makes him a risky investment in standard Fantasy formats.
