Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Paul Goldschmidt went 4-for-5 with three doubles, two RBI and a run scored in Wednesday's loss to the Giants. Goldschmidt has been on a tear and now has seven hits (including four doubles) in his last nine at-bats. His recent performance has brought his average up to .233, the highest it's been since May 5. Goldy has turned it around of late, posting an OPS close to north of .950 in his last 12 games. The time to buy low on Goldschmidt is coming to an end.

Since 2013, Paul Goldschmidt has helped fantasy baseball owners win leagues in every format. This season I've been seeing posts for a month declaring Goldschmidt as "old-s**t." It's a steep fall. At the start of the season, Goldschmidt was a no-doubt first-round pick. Owners could take him number 3, and someone might grumble about Nolan Arenado, but that was it. He offered MVP upside and the bedrock foundation of a guy who had averaged the following line for the previous six years: G [...]

Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Paul Goldschmidt went 1-for-3 with a home run and two runs scored in Saturdays win over the Marlins. That makes two home runs in the last three games for Goldschmidt, who is finally coming alive at the plate. The two homers were particularly encouraging, as they were his first at Chase Field this season. He is still slugging an ugly .284 at home, but this weekend has been a great sign for worried owners.

Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Paul Goldschmidt went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's loss to the Reds. After the worst hitting month of his career, Goldschmidt is finally starting to look alive at the plate, having collected hits in five of his last six games, bringing his average above the Mendoza Line. It's still not what owners were expecting, but Goldschmidt is starting to heat up, and his buy-low window is slowly starting to close.

Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Paul Goldschmidt went 0-for-4 with four strikeouts in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Mets. Goldschmidt has been the poster boy for the Diamondbacks offensive struggles of late, going 2-for-21 over the last week. He looks lost at the plate, striking out in 31.6 percent of his at-bat, nine percent higher than last season. His BABIP is lower than normal, but owners shouldn't expect it to rise with a 21 percent soft contact rate. Goldschmidt will have another chance to t[...]

Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Paul Goldschmidt went 0-for-2 with two walks in the 2-1 loss to the [...]

Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Paul Goldschmidt went 0-for-4 on Sunday, bringing his season average down to .225. Goldschmidt has now gone the entire month of May without a hit, and carries a K:BB ratio of 9:3. His K% is 10 percent higher than last season (32.4%) while his BABIP remains the same. The biggest issue seems to be Goldschmidt's performance at home. His hard hit percentage at home is 15% lower at home and his infield pop ups are eight percent higher, leading to a .649 OPS at Chase[...]

Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Paul Goldschmidt went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts in Friday night's loss to the Astros. The entire Arizona lineup was at the mercy of Gerrit Cole on Friday, mustering just one hit and one walk against him. This marked Goldschmidt's fourth straight game without a hit. Over his last 10 games, he has just six hits, three of which came in one game. The slump has dropped his average 40 points to .239. The most concerning aspect of his slump is that his plate discipl[...]

Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Paul Goldschmidt will take a rare day off for Saturday's game against the Nationals. It will be the first day off for Goldschmidt this season, who has brought his average up to .278 after starting the season 3-for-34. Christian Walker will start at first base and bat fifth in his place. Expect Goldy to be back in the lineup on Sunday.

Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Paul Goldschmidt went 1-for-5 with a run scored and a stolen base. The steal was Goldschmidt's first of the season. It was also Goldschmidt's first attempted steal of the season, which doesn't bode well for his SB numbers moving forward. Goldschmidt still has incredible value as a batter, but the elite value he held over other top tier first baseman will decrease if he isn't stealing bases.
