Player Notes
September 4, 2008
Though it is doubtful he wins the award, Kansas City's Mike Aviles should be in consideration with Tampa Bay's Evan Longoria for AL Rookie of the Year, according to the Kansas City Star. "If I’m even mentioned in that discussion, it’s a good thing," Aviles said.

Our View:Aviles won't win the award over Longoria or Chicago's Alexi Ramirez, but he has had a terrific season, hitting .333 in 76 games. At 27, he is old for a rookie, and there is a reason he took so long to arrive in the big leagues. Fantasy owners should keep that in mind during drafts next season when thinking about taking him.
August 31, 2008
Mike Aviles underwent X-rays after Sunday's game. The results showed only a bruise on his right index finger, the Kansas City Star reports. The shortstop could be back on Tuesday.

Our View:That's excellent news for the rookie shortstop. We still wonder if he'll be ready after the off-day on Monday, but fantasy owners should be able to count on him moving forward.
August 31, 2008
Mike Aviles had to leave the Royals game against the Tigers in the seventh after getting hit in the hand with a pitch while he was attempting to swing, according to The Sports Network.

Our View:Aviles has broken through this season, offering fantasy owners a .334 batting average, seven home runs and 38 RBI.
August 29, 2008
Mike Aviles went 3-for-5 with an RBI in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Tigers at Comerica Park. All three of his hits were singles.

Our View:He fared well at the plate but was not as successful in the field, as he made his eighth error (throwing) of the season.
August 22, 2008
Mike Aviles went 3-for-5 and scored a run, but it wasn't enough, as the Royals were downed by the Detroit Tigers 4-3.

Our View:Aviles' batting average is now at .333, and for the month of August it is .354. He doesn't walk a lot, so his OBP is not as high as it could be, but overall he should be a major asset to fantasy squads.
