He's raking. Great pickup for my fantasy team.

Me too! Had Reyes go down with injury and Zobrist was there to save me.

I dropped Zobrist to make room for Nolan Reimold in my dynasty fantasy league because at the time he was still a backup, then less than a week after Iwamura goes down and he takes over and mashes. Then I looked at the rest of my team and realized I didn't really think it through because there were a crap load of other players I could've dropped to make room for Reimold.

 

But yeah, Zobrist has been pretty great for the Rays. His power numbers last year were sort of in line with what he's done so far this year, he's just hitting the ball for contact as well as power this year. He was always a pretty good hitter in the minors, just not a power guy. I also didn't realize he was already 28. I thought he was 24 or 25 or something.

You're talking about the 2008 Tampa Bay Rays MVP.
