Pillar went 2-for-5 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Monday's 6-4 loss to Arizona.
EDGE Analysis
Pillar's torrid month of August continued Monday when he smacked his 16th extra-base hit over 22 games this month. The 30-year-old has already set career highs with 19 homers and 73 RBI this season, and his current .454 slugging percentage would also be the highest mark of his eight-year career. Pillar's increase in power -- coupled with his modest speed -- has made him a relevant fantasy outfielder in almost all formats.

Pillar went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Like so many other players this season, Pillar is enjoying a career-best performance in homers, slugging 18 through 126 games so far. His .740 OPS is only marginally higher than his previous best (.713 in 2015) however, in large part due to a career-worst 2.8 percent walk rate, which has led to a miserable .290 OBP.

Pillar went 5-for-5 with three runs scored and one RBI in Saturday's 11-6 win over the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
Pillar had a double and four singles, the last of which was a run-scoring knock in the eighth inning to plate Evan Longoria. He's had a hot bat lately, hitting .453 (24-for-53) with four homers, 14 runs scored and 11 RBI through 16 games in August. For the season, the center fielder is hitting .271/.301/.463 with 17 homers, 67 RBI and 65 runs scored in 119 games with the Giants since an early-season trade from the Blue Jays.

Pillar went 2-for-4 with a pair of home runs and a walk in Friday's 10-9 win over the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
Pillar swung at the first pitch he saw from Mike Leake in the fourth inning and launched a solo home run to extend the Giants' lead, 4-1. He walked and scored again in the eighth, then cranked a two-run homer in the 10th to put the Giants ahead, 9-7. The 30-year-old now leads San Francisco in both home runs (17) and RBI (66) this year while batting .262/.293/.455.

Pillar went 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Tuesday's 3-2 win over Oakland.
EDGE Analysis
Pillar's hot streak continues as he contributed his third straight multi-hit game with an extra-base hit. The 30-year-old was caught stealing for the fourth time this year, but his 10 successful steals complement his 15 homers well for 12-team and deeper formats.

Pillar went 2-for-3 with a double and a solo home run in Saturday's 3-1 win over Philadelphia.
EDGE Analysis
Pillar has been on an absolute tear over his last 10 starts, slashing .361/.378/.722 with three home runs and two steals over that span. The 30-year-old is just one long ball away from tying his career-best mark of 16, and he has a realistic shot at reaching the 20-homer plateau (to go along with double-digit steals) with 44 games left this season.

Pillar went 1-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in Friday's loss to the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
Pillar put the Giants on the board with a two-out solo homer off Drew Smyly in the second inning. The 30-year-old is batting .245/.272/.411 with 14 home runs, 59 RBI, 58 runs scored and 10 stolen bases.

Pillar went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Thursday's 5-0 win over Philadelphia.
EDGE Analysis
It was Pillar's 10th steal of the season, giving him double-digit homers and steals for the fourth time over the last five years. The 30-year-old is slashing .345/.367/.552 over his last 10 games, and his streaky nature could result in short-term fantasy value until he cools back down.
