Around the Bases June 5

Miguel Olivo (KC - C) - Olivo is on pace to hit 19 HR and best his 16 HR campaign in '07. He is still mired in a timeshare behind the dish with John Buck, but if he keeps this up, that may be a thing of the past. For now add him in AL-Only leagues and you mixed leaguers should...
