David DeJesus

The Angels have acquired outfielder David DeJesus from the Rays on Tuesday. In return, the Rays are receiving minor-league pitcher Eduar Lopez. The right-hander made eight starts with the Angels' rookie league team this season. He went 2-2 with a 4.32 ERA in 33 1/3 innings.

The Angels have successfully re-tooled their outfield, acquiring DeJesus, David Murphy and Shane Victorino in less than 24 hours. DeJesus has had a solid year so far in 2015, batting .259 with a .323 on-base percentage.

David DeJesus continued being productive for the Rays in 2015, going 2-for-4 with a home run, two runs scored, an RBI, and a walk as the Rays trounced the Orioles by a score of 9-5 in a rubber match on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

DeJesus just keeps producing on the field, and being a solid veteran presence in the clubhouse. The homer gives him five on the season, to go with 16 runs scored, 19 RBI, one stolen base, and a .333/.383/.504 line in 123 at-bats. He's obviously not a mixed league asset, but you could do worse in an AL-Only format, and he has his days in DFS.

Rays outfielder David DeJesus was a catalyst once again on Thursday night, leading the Rays to a 3-0 victory over visiting Oakland. DeJesus went 2-for-4 with a home run, a double, and two RBI in what turned out to be another solid effort for the veteran outfielder.

Fantasy Impact

The fountain of youth just keeps running for this guy, and to think the Rays we're possibly going to cut him loose before the season started? The homer was his fourth of the season, while he's also hitting .324/.367/.470 in 102 at-bats. He has 13 runs scored, 18 RBI, and a stolen base in what should continue to be a solid season. Continue to use him in AL-Only leagues until further notice.

David DeJesus went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in the Rays 3-2 loss to the Twins on Friday night. DeJesus hit the bomb off Phil Hughes in the second inning to give the Rays an early 1-0 lead.

Fantasy Impact

The Rays have recently switched to hitting Kevin Kiermaier lead-off against right handed pitchers, but DeJesus should remain productive even while hitting lower in the order(6th tonight). The veteran lefty has hit .301/.356/.446 with three home runs, 11 runs scored, and 14 RBI so far. Continue rolling him out there in AL-Only leagues and in DFS when he's facing a righty.

Coming to bat in the seventh inning, DeJesus delivered a clutch, game-tying base knock off of Nathan Eovaldi to score Evan Longoria and Logan Forsythe. The Rays would go on to score the winning run the next inning via an Evan Longoria sac-fly. DeJesus ended the night going 2-for-3 with two RBI. Tonight represented his fourth multi-hit outing in his last seven games.

Fantasy Impact

DeJesus has been a catalyst for this average Rays lineup in 2015. He's hitting .311/.370/.432 to go along with two home runs,13 RBI, and a stolen base. With the additions of John Jaso and Steven Souza in the off-season, the Rays were contemplating trading or releasing DeJesus in Spring Training with the assumption he wouldn't have an opportunity to receive consistent at-bats. There still isn't any definitive timetable for either Jennings or Jaso, so continue to ride DeJesus while he's hot in AL-Only leagues.
