White Sox's Adam Eaton: Scores thrice in win over Seattle

Eaton went 2-for-4 with a walk and three runs, including racing home with the game-winner in Thursday's walkoff victory against the Mariners.

Analysis:

Chicago's leadoff hitter has been an on-base machine lately -- he's hit safely in eight straight games and owns a .367 batting average (and .426 OBP) over the last 12. However, Eaton's fantasy value is tempered by his modest power, mediocre RBI and run totals, and surprisingly low speed contributions. Eaton stole 30-plus bases three times in the minors including 44 one year, but has never even cracked 20 as a major leaguer. With only 12 this year, that'll almost certainly be the case again.
