"You got a weird definitions of "modest". By the end of July, Tulo was OPS-ing .870. That's a hell of a modest SS. (nm)"

And it was only that low do to a poor start. Well, poor for him.

His March/April OPS was .785. He also only had 1 SB, and his only 2 times caught stealing. He still had 13 RBIs, 17 runs, and a .304 average. And that was his worst healthy month.
His OPS in May was .961 and for his 13 games in June it was .884. He had 30 runs, 21 RBIs, 8 HRs and 6 steals in that time frame. Anyone should be thrilled with those numbers from a shortstop hitting around .300. He didn't help much in July, since he only played in 5 games, but he didn't hurt, either. He then had a really nice August and followed that up with a Sep./Oct. that probably won some people their leagues. Combine his strong finish with him being in the early part of his prime years and you have the potential for him to supplant Hanley as the best SS in fantasy. Especially if he goes back to 20 sb range.
