Description: Center fielder Rajai Davis has been placed on the 15-day disabled list with a strained oblique..
Insight: Davis (.291, 13 runs, 8 SB) is expected to miss between two and three weeks. he was just starting to find his batting stroke, going 4-for-9 in the series against Tampa Bay.
 
5/7/2013 9:42:00 AM
Description: Center fielder Rajai Davis is a career .467 hitter (7-for-15) against Tampa Bay right-hander Roberto Hernandez.
Insight: Davis (.271, 11 runs, 6 SB) is seeing plenty of at-bats these days with Jose Bautista missing some time due to his back and Melky Cabrera not hitting up to expectations. This matchup is worth putting him in fantasy lineups.
 
4/19/2013 9:42:00 AM
Description: Center fielder Rajai Davis is a career .583 hitter (7-for-12) against Yankees veteran left-hander Andy Pettitte.
Insight: Davis played right field and leadoff in Thursday's game and did what he does best - steal bases. He has four this season and produced 46 steals in 2012.
 
11/1/2012 11:45:00 AM
Description: Center fielder Rajai Davis is coming back to the Blue Jays. He re-signed with Toronto Wednesday for one year and $2.5 million.
Insight: Davis is maddeningly inconsistent at the plate (.257, 8 HR, 43 RBI in 2012) but he'll always carry value as a base stealer (46 steals this past season).
 
9/23/2012 11:55:00 AM
Description: Blue Jays left fielder Rajai Davis will get the day off Sunday against Tampa Bay.
Insight: Davis has been partially able to make up for his lack of offensive production (.243 average, .300 OBP) by stealing 45 bases. Only Mike Trout (46 SB) has more thefts than Davis in 2012.
 
Cold9/16/2012 11:21:00 AM
Description: Toronto outfielder Rajai Davis will be on the sidelines for Sunday's series finale against the Red Sox.
Insight: Davis is 1-for-10 in the series with five strikeouts. He's only a viable fantasy candidate if you're really desperate for stolen bases (43 steals in 127 games).
 
9/7/2012 12:30:00 PM
Description: Blue Jays left fielder Rajai Davis is hitless in eight at-bats versus Boston starter Felix Doubront.
Insight: Davis certainly provides speed for any fantasy lineup with 40 stolen bases this season, but you can't steal first base.
 
8/12/2012 5:44:00 PM
Description: Blue Jays left fielder Rajai Davis had five RBIs and a stolen base Sunday against the Yankees.
Insight: Davis is still one of the better speed options in fantasy baseball. He is hitting .261 with six homers, 32 RBIs and 33 steals in 97 games.
 
7/29/2012 11:00:00 AM
Description: Blue Jays left fielder Rajai Davis should be a very worthwhile fantasy play Sunday against Detroit's Doug Fister. Davis is hitting .409 in 22 career at bats against the Tigers righthander.
Insight: Davis (.253, 5 HRs, 25 RBIs) was only 1-for-5 at the plate Saturday but he was still able to reward fantasy owners by collecting a pair of stolen bases.
 
7/27/2012 7:02:00 PM
Description: Toronto left fielder Rajai Davis isn't starting Friday night's series opener against the Tigers.
Insight: Despite collecting five hits in his last 12 at bats, Davis (.255, 5 HRs, 25 RBIs, 25 SBs) is still hitting just .207 in 58 at bats this month.
 
7/22/2012 5:34:00 PM
Description: Blue Jays outfielder Rajai Davis overcame a poor history against Red Sox starter Jon Lester to go 3-for-4 with a homer, two RBIs and three runs scored Sunday.
Insight: Davis has been one of the better speed men in fantasy baseball, stealing 25 bags in 32 attempts, and anytime he can add a little power to the mix it's much appreciated.
 
7/22/2012 10:04:00 AM
Description: Blue Jays outfielder Rajai Davis has never fared well against Red Sox starter Jon Lester. In 19 career at bats versus the Boston lefthander, Davis has recorded just three hits.
Insight: He has also struck out eight times in that span. With Lester (5-7, 4.80 ERA) on the mound for Sunday's series finale, today is not a good day to start Davis (.249, 4 HRs, 23 RBIs, 25 SBs).
 
7/20/2012 4:20:00 PM
Description: Toronto outfielder Rajai Davis is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against Boston. Just a day of rest.
Insight: The Blue Jays left fielder is good for one thing - stolen bases. If you can afford the hit to your other catagories, he'll certainly help you with 24 steals in 31 attempts.
 
Cold7/15/2012 12:50:00 PM
Description: Toronto outfielder Rajai Davis is not a part of the Blue Jays' starting lineup on Sunday.
Insight: The Blue Jays left fielder hasn't had a base hit since the 4th of July and is 0-23 over his last seven games. Davis (.243, 4 HRs, 23 RBIs) has found his way on to some fantasy rosters because of his speed (23 steals in 73 games this season) but that speed is pretty tough to utilize when you can't even get on base.
 
7/8/2012 9:11:00 PM
Description: Speedy Blue Jays outfielder Rajai Davis wasn't able to record a hit in Sunday's win over the White Sox but he was able to steal three bases, giving him 23 for the season.
Insight: Only Mike Trout (26 SBs) has more steals than Davis among American League base stealers and only Dee Gordon (30), Michael Bourn (25) and Tony Campana (25) are ahead of Davis if you include both leagues. Unfortunately Davis hits for a low average (.253) and he doesn't have much power (four homers in 71 games) so he's pretty much a one-category player in fantasy.
 
6/29/2012 10:29:00 PM
Description: Blue Jays outfielder Rajai Davis came into Friday 1-for-14 in his career against Angels starter Ervin Santana, but he finished the night 2-for-4 with two stolen bases.
Insight: Davis should be one of the top free agent targets for those in search of speed. The outfielder has 20 thefts to go along with a .280 batting average this season.
 
6/29/2012 1:14:00 PM
Description: Blue Jays outfielder Rajai Davis should not be in your fantasy starting lineup on Friday. He's 1-14 (.071) with six strikeouts in his career against Angels starter Ervin Santana.
Insight: Davis (.274, 4 HRs, 20 RBIs, 18 SBs) is always a threat to steal when he gets on base but he might have a hard time reaching against Santana Friday night at the Rogers Centre.
 
6/22/2012 10:30:00 PM
Description: Blue Jays outfielder Rajai Davis went 2-for-5 with a double, one RBI and his 17th stolen base of the season Friday night against Miami.
Insight: Davis is one of the better stolen base options in the fantasy game, especially if he can keep his OPS over .750 like it is currently.
 
5/11/2011 9:34:00 PM
Description: Rajai Davis went 4 for 4 with 2 runs scored and 2 RBI in Wednesday's win over the Redsox.
Insight: Keep Davis active in all formats due to his high stolen base potential.
