Will Venable fighting for playing time
by Joe Polito | CBSSports.com
(5/16/13) Padres outfielder Will Venable has showed that he’s capable of power. But with all the pieces in the San Diego outfield shuffle, Venable might not get enough opportunities to make him a worthwhile Fantasy option.

Our Nandi Di Fino expressed his concern over Venebale being a “part-time player” during Thursday’s broadcast of Fantasy Baseball Today. He said in another situation, with guaranteed playing time, he likes Venable. But the only player he considers a sure thing in the Padres outfield is Carlos Quentin.

Will Venable in midst of productive stretch
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com
(5/15/13) Padres outfielder Will Venable doubled and drove in one run Wednesday at Baltimore. He finished 2 for 5.

Venable has hit safely in seven of his last nine games. He's batting .357 (10 for 28) with one double, three home runs and six RBI in that span.

Will Venable showing signs of life
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com
(5/11/13) Padres outfielder Will Venable continued to heat up after a slow start. He hit his third home run in five games Friday against the Rays.

Venable extended a modest hitting streak to three games with a first-inning solo home run. He finished 1 for 4 with two strikeouts in addition to the home run, however he did score a second run after one of those strikeouts. Venabale reached based on a wild pitch after he struck out, then stole two bases and scored on another wild pitch. His effort came in a 6-3 loss.

Since he hit bottom with a .197 batting average on May 2, Venable has hit safely in five of seven games. He is hitting .438 with three home runs and five RBI in that stretch.
