Chicago Cubs outfielder Kyle Schwarber is out of the starting lineup again on Tuesday against Marlins right-hander Pablo Lopez. Kris Bryant is in left field and is batting second, while David Bote is at the hot corner again and is hitting seventh. Daniel Descalso will be a DFS sleeper in the leadoff spot in a good matchup. Schwarber has three home runs on the year, but he has just 10 hits in 52 at-bats (.192). He should get going eventually, but his fantasy owners will want to bench him unt[...]

Chicago Cubs outfielder Kyle Schwarber is not in the starting lineup on Monday. Kris Bryant is in left field and is hitting second against Marlins starting pitcher Trevor Richards, while David Bote is at third and is hitting seventh. Ben Zobrist is batting leadoff. Schwarber has three home runs and six RBI on the season, but he's hitting just .192 with 10 hits in 52 at-bats.

Welcome to our Surprising Starts series, where every week we look at lower-owned starting pitchers who have performed unexpectedly well in their last outing(s).Major league batters are striking out at an astounding 23% clip so far this season, which has resulted in plenty of unheralded hurlers racking up massive strikeout totals.

Schwarber homered twice over the weekend and is off to a good start, going 5-for-12 (.417) with three RBI. He won't hit for average all year but has excellent power. Zobrist's greatest fantasy asset in deeper lea[...]

Chicago Cubs outfielder Kyle Schwarber continued his hot start to the season with his second home run in as many days. Schwarber offers plenty of power and even though manager Joe Maddon is very unlikely to let him face lefties, Schwarber should be owned in all formats.

Chicago Cubs outfielder Kyle Schwarber hit his first home run of the season on Saturday versus the Texas Rangers. Schwarber didnt get the start on Opening Day, but that didnt stop him from going yard on Saturday. Schwarber finished 3-for-5. Although manager Joe Maddon rarely will let him face left-handed pitching, Schwarber is worth owning for his power numbers.

Chicago Cubs outfielder Kyle Schwarber will be absent from the team's Opening Day lineup on Thursday. The Cubs will face left-handed pitcher Mike Minor and manager Joe Maddon does not like to deploy Schwarber versus lefties. Outfielder Mark Zagunis will replace Schwarber and bat ninth. Zagunis had a nice spring, but can be ignored outside of DFS leagues.

As we enter the final stretch for drafting it is time to take a look at the latest iteration of points leagues rankings from our amazing hard working rankings staff. Starting with the outfield is always fun because there is so much depth at the position, especially if you only require three of them, as many points leagues do.
