Upton hits for cycle on 5-for-5 day: Rays OF B.J. Upton became the first player in team history to hit for the cycle Friday against the Yankees. He hit a three-run triple in the first inning, then doubled off SP CC Sabathia in the third. After hitting a two-run homer off Jonathan Albaladejo in the fourth, he completed the cycle with a run-scoring single off David Robertson in the fifth. Upton finished 5 for 5 with six RBI and three runs scored. "It was an incredible night for him," Rays manager Joe Maddon said.

Fantasy Analysis

The monster game raised Upton's batting average to only .243, which shows just how much he's struggled this year. He looked like a 30-30 candidate entering the season, but all he has offered for Fantasy purposes is stolen bases. And most of those came in the first half. At age 25, he still has time to live up to his elite potential, but you can wait until the middle rounds to draft him in 2010.
