Casey Kotchman doubled and ripped a solo homer in Thursday's loss to the Red Sox.
The longball -- his third of the year -- came against Alfredo Aceves in the sixth inning. Kotchman continues to swing a hot bat after returning earlier this month from an ankle injury, as he's batting .391 over his last six contests and sports a surprising .339 mark for the year. He'll come back to earth eventually, but for now he's worth using even in mixed leagues if you have an injury at first base.
