After having his 17-game hitting streak snapped Friday, Giancarlo Stanton homered and tripled against the Giants on Saturday.
Stanton had gone eight straight games without a homer, his longest drought of the year. He's up to 12 homers now, but his 12 doubles and .320 average are even more encouraging.

Giancarlo Stanton went 3-for-3 with a walk, double, and run scored in Wednesday's win over the Dodgers.
Stanton doesn't always get the help of his teammates, but he certainly had it tonight, as Miami collected 17 hits off Paul Maholm and crew. With a big lead, Miami gave Stanton the night off early, pinch hitting Marcell Ozuna in the seventh. Stanton is riding a 16-game hitting streak (he last went hitless on April 27), and the last four have all been multi-hit efforts. Stanton, one of the best we have in fantasy baseball, is batting .321 with an NL-leading 11 homers and 42 RBI.

Stanton has been one of most valuable fantasy baseball commodities so far this season.
