Washington Nationals 1B Adam LaRoche has eight hits in his last 14 at-bats to raise his average from .129 through May 1 to .196. "I like where he's at," manager Davey Johnson said before the game. "I think he's seeing the ball better. His timing's coming around."

Fantasy Tip: LaRoche is quite the streaky hitter, but he's getting hot right now, so you should consider riding him out, especially with the home run potential he brings.

Washington Nationals 1B Adam LaRoche will sit out Wednesday, April 24, and OF Tyler Moore will start in his place.

Fantasy Tip: LaRoche could use the day off, as he's hitting .172 on the season and struck out four times yesterday. He's a notoriously slow starter, so you'll have to mix and match with him til his bat wakes up.

Washington Nationals 1B Adam LaRoche (ankle) was back in the lineup Tuesday, April 9, against the Chicago White Sox, and he snapped an 0-for-15 skid by socking a pair of home runs.

Fantasy Tip: LaRoche missed the past two games due to a back muscle issue. He obviously looked very healthy, and it is safe to plug him back into the active fantasy lineup in all leagues which permit daily transactions.

Washington Nationals 1B Adam LaRoche (back) left the game Friday, April 5, against the Cincinnati Reds due to tightness in his lower back. Manager Davey Johnson might rest LaRoche Saturday, April 6.

Fantasy Tip: Those in fantasy formats which permit daily transactions might want to reserve LaRoche for Saturday's game. It appears Johnson is leaning toward holding him out.
