J.P. Arencibia went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run Friday against the Orioles.

The home run was his first since way back on June 18. It's difficult to use Arencibia in fantasy leagues when he isn't producing in the power department. It's the only thing he has going for him.

J.P. Arencibia went 3-for-4 with a double and a home run as the Blue Jays beat the Rockies on Tuesday.

The homer was Arencibia's third in four games and his 15th on the season. His .222/.243/.461 line is indicative of Arencibia's game -- he doesn't hit for average, he doesn't walk, but when he makes contact it goes a long way.

The cold streak has dropped his season batting line to an ugly .211/.233/.417. Of course, Arencibia has also hit 12 homers this season, and a low average with some home run pop was all fantasy owners were hoping for. He's not a bad second catcher in fantasy leagues but is a pretty dreadful real-life hitter.

J.P. Arencibia went 0-for-3 and struck out twice Tuesday against the Giants.

Arencibia's 20:1 K:BB ratio was kind of cute when he homering twice per week, but not so much anymore. He's batting .222, his OBP stands at .245 and his slugging percentage has dropped from .616 in late April to .449 now. It's past time the Jays stop batting him fifth.

J.P. Arencibia went 2-for-5 with a home run and four RBI in Thursday's 12-6 win over the Orioles.

J.P. Arencibia hit his 10th home run Wednesday in the Blue Jays' 11-3 win over the Giants.

Arencibia has been doing his usual Arencibia thing this year, hitting for power but at the expense of average. The catcher now has 20 RBI and a .236 batting mark to go with his 10 homers. His power and ability to drive in runs in the Blue Jays' order make him a solid fantasy play.

J.P. Arencibia hit a two-run homer off Fernando Rodney in the top of the ninth to complete the Jays' comeback in an 8-7 win over the Rays on Monday.

The Jays fell behind 7-0 in the third, but they went on to score three in the fourth, two in the sixth, one in the eighth and two in the ninth to win it. Arencibia's homer, on a fastball left over the plate, was his ninth of the year. In Rodney's defense, there's no way a guy with a 42/2 K/BB ratio would have chased a pitch a few inches outside.

J.P. Arencibia is not in Monday evening's lineup against the Rays.
