May 24 LaRoche went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Wednesday in Washington's loss at Philadelphia.

Recommendation: LaRoche ended an 0-for-19 stretch with his blast in the final inning Wednesday. He is having an excellent year to date, posting a .297/.392/.545 line with eight home runs and 33 RBI through 40 games. With no other potent bats around him, though, LaRoche could see his production dip if pitchers focus their efforts on him knowing his teammates find it difficult to succeed at the plate.

May 17 LaRoche went 3 for 4, homered and drove in four runs in Wednesday's win over Pittsburgh.
