Tigers' Justin Upton: Abysmal start continues

Upton is two-for-16 in his last five games with eight strikeouts.

Analysis:

Upton is on pace right now for his first ever 200-plus-strikeout season. His 47 lead all of baseball. Upton is striking out more and walking less than in any other season, and his isolated power (.101) is half of his career average. But he has taken four walks in his last two games, so perhaps something is starting to click. Upton is a lot better than what he's showing, but he's a liability for fantasy rosters right now.
