Description: Cubs outfielder David DeJesus has gone 6-for-12 with a homer, three RBI and five runs over his last three games. | Insight: DeJesus doesn't have much power or speed and his career average is .281, so he has never been a strong fantasy option. But he has a .290 average, five homers, 17 extra-base hits and an .878 OPS through 38 games. | | |
| Hot | 9/23/2012 10:20:00 AM |

Ride the hot streak. | | |
| 9/22/2012 9:46:00 AM |
Description: Coming off a four-hit day Friday, Cubs outfielder David DeJesus has another good matchup Saturday against St. Louis starter Adam Wainwright. | Insight: DeJesus is 6-for-10 over his last two games and he has a .421 career average (8-for-19) with three doubles, a triple and a homer against Wainwright. Saturday is as good a day as any to get DeJesus in your fantasy lineup. | | |

Description: Cubs outfielder David DeJesus is on the bench for Monday's series opener in Houston. | Insight: DeJesus (.264, 7 HR, 45 RBI) has played well against the Astros this season (.407 average in 27 at bats) so he should be back in the lineup tomorrow. We could even see him come in as a pinch-hitter later on tonight. | | |
| 8/30/2012 1:15:00 PM |
Description: Chicago outfielder David DeJesus won't be of much use to fantasy owners Thursday against Milwaukee. He's an .091 lifetime hitter versus Brewers righthander Shaun Marcum. | Insight: Marcum is a perfect 4-0 against the Cubs for his career so don't expect a lot of offense today at Wrigley. | | |
| 8/15/2012 9:27:00 PM |
Description: Cubs outfielder David DeJesus doubled his season home run total with a pair of round-trippers Wednesday against Houston. | Insight: The very uncharacteristic power explosion came as part of a 4-for-4 day for DeJesus, who is now hitting .270 for the year with 33 RBI. Wednesday was DeJesus' first multi-home run game since August 6th of last year. | | |
| 8/6/2012 9:09:00 PM |
Description: Chicago outfielder David DeJesus is not in the starting lineup Monday night against the Padres. | Insight: DeJesus (.262, 2 HR, 27 RBI) broke an 0-for-14 skid with a single Sunday against the Dodgers. With DeJesus on the sidelines, Brett Jackson (.500, 0 HR, 0 RBI) will draw the start in center field for the Cubs. | | |
| 7/30/2012 7:59:00 PM |
Description: Cubs outfielder David DeJesus will be on the bench for Monday night's game versus Pittsburgh. | Insight: DeJesus (.270, 2 HRs, 25 RBIs) is tied for fifth in the major leagues with seven triples. Two of those three-baggers came this past weekend against St. Louis. | | |
| 7/29/2012 1:45:00 PM |
Description: Cardinals starter Adam Wainwright has always had trouble keeping David DeJesus in check. The Cubs outfielder is hitting .438 in his career against the St. Louis righthander. | Insight: DeJesus (.270, 2 HRs, 25 RBIs) usually can't be relied on for consistent offensive production but you can expect big things from him on Sunday. | | |
| Cold | 7/19/2012 1:50:00 PM |
Description: Cubs outfielder David DeJesus is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against Miami. | Insight: DeJesus (.264, 2 HRs, 23 RBIs) is just 2-for-15 since coming back from the All-Star break. | | |
| 7/2/2012 7:03:00 PM |
Description: Chicago outfielder David DeJesus will have the night off Monday while he recovers from a sore neck. | Insight: DeJesus (.269, 2 HRs, 21 RBIs) had a number of productive games last week, the highlight being a 4-5 performance against the Diamondbacks on June 23. DeJesus' neck injury doesn't appear to be a serious one so for now, consider the Cubs outfielder day-to-day. | | |
| 7/1/2012 1:24:00 PM |
Description: Chicago outfielder David DeJesus will take a seat Sunday for the Cubs' series finale against Houston. | Insight: DeJesus really doesn't have much fantasy significance aside from his .269 batting average, and even that's nothing to brag about. You could probably go ahead and leave DeJesus on the waiver wire for now. | | |
| 6/22/2012 9:59:00 AM |
Description: Cubs rightfielder David DeJesus is just 4-for-22 (.182) with a four of strikeouts in his career against Arizona lefty Joe Saunders. | Insight: Dejesus has been the Cubs everyday right fielder, but his fantasy value is limited by a lack of power (2 HR) and speed (2 SB). He's batting .261 this season with 36 runs scored and 21 RBI, but is understandably not valued highly in fantasy leagues. If you have been using him on a temporary basis, sit him today. | | |
| 6/10/2012 11:36:00 AM |
Description: Cubs rightfielder David DeJesus is just 2-12 (.167) with a pair of strikeouts in his career against Twins lefty Francisco Liriano. | Insight: Liriano isn't the only lefthander DeJesus struggles against. In 42 at bats against lefties this season, DeJesus has only seven hits (.167) and one RBI. | | |
| 5/17/2012 3:58:00 PM |
Description: David DeJesus can't be pleased to see Roy Halladay's name on the lineup card for Thursday's game. The Cubs rightfielder has only managed four hits off of Halladay in 23 career at bats (.174). | Insight: DeJesus (.273, 1 HR, 9 RBIs) went 1-4 with a double in last night's blowout loss to Philadelphia. Given his history against Halladay, we wouldn't be surprised if Manager Dale Sveum decides to sit DeJesus on Thursday. | | |
| 5/12/2012 11:00:00 AM |
Description: Chicago Cubs outfielder David DeJesus did everything yesterday, blasting a triple and home run while knocking in five, but facing Milwaukee starter Shaun Marcum may slow his momentum. He's a career .053 hitting against Marcum (1-for-19) with five strikeouts. | Insight: With little power (one homer) and no speed to speak of (zero stolen bases), DeJesus is giving very little reason for fantasy owners to start him or even have him on their roster. Facing Marcum yields little hope of a turnaround on Saturday. | | |
| Cold | 4/9/2012 11:10:00 AM |
Description: Don't be surprised if Chicago Cubs outfielder David DeJesus gets the day off on Monday. He's batting just .143 this season (1-for-9) and faces a pitcher in Shaun Marcum who "owns" him. | Insight: DeJesus has never gotten a hit off Marcum in 16 at-bats. Obviously, if DeJesus is on your roster you need to take him out of your lineup. | | |
| 5/25/2011 10:15:00 AM |
Description: DeJesus had his 2nd multi HR game of the season on Tuesday to propel Oakland to a 6-1 victory over the Angels | Insight: I can't think of a sleepier fantasy player at the moment. Don't let the occasional big game lure you in. | | |
| 4/7/2011 10:35:00 AM |
Description: David DeJesus will get the day off against the Blue Jays today.
SOURCE: Joe Stiglich on Twitter | Insight: He is starting to warm up at the plate and his skills with the glove make him a valuable option to have in deeper mixed leagues. | | |
| 11/10/2010 9:47:00 PM |
Description: David DeJesus has been traded to Oakland for Vin Mazzaro and Justin Marks.
SOURCE: OAKLAND ATHLETICS ON TWITTER | Insight: The A's love to corner the market of average outfielders and they just added another one. Right now they have a bit of a log jam but we will have to wait and see what else develops. Mazzaro is a good candidate for the Royals rotation. | | |
