Mon Jun 2 2014 | 23:39 | Revere has two hits, run scored in loss |
Ben Revere went 2-for-4 with a run scored Monday in a loss to the Mets. |
Revere has now hit safely in eight straight games and is batting .289 on the year. We won't complain from a fantasy perspective, but his .303 on-base percentage is not ideal out of the leadoff spot. He has walked just four times 199 plate appearances. No qualified batter has a lower walk percentage. |

Tue May 27 2014 | 23:48 | Revere ends 1,565 PA homerless streak vs. COL |
Ben Revere went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Tuesday's loss to the Rockies. |
Revere entered the game homerless in 1,562 plate appearances and went 0-for-3 before hitting his first career home run in the seventh inning off of Boone Logan. Certainly an ignominious feat. Despite the home run, Revere remains far away from respectability at the top of the Phillies' lineup, slashing .288/.301/.337 with 12 stolen bases. |

Sat May 24 2014 | 17:54 | Revere goes 4-for-4 in Phillies' win over LAD |
Ben Revere went 4-for-4 with an RBI in the Phillies' defeat of the Dodgers on Saturday afternoon. |
Revere had three singles and a double. It was a timely breakout for the 26-year-old speedster, who has been in and out of the Philadelphia starting lineup because of a lack of overall production at the plate. He is still batting just .289/.303/.322 on the season and doesn't provide much fantasy value beyond his base-stealing. |

Ben Revere is back in the Phillies' starting lineup on Thursday afternoon against the Marlins. |
It's his first start since last Wednesday. Some of that absence was due to a stomach virus, but most of it was related to poor performance. Revere has 12 stolen bases in 14 attempts this season, but he's batting just .266/.282/.295 and has made some bad defensive blunders. |

Wed May 21 2014 | 15:26 | Ben Revere sitting out again Wednesday |
Ben Revere is not in the Phillies' lineup for the fifth straight game Wednesday. |
Revere missed the first three of those games due to a stomach virus, but his absence from the lineup the last two days appears to be a manager's decision. Dennis Deitch of the Delaware County Daily Times wonder is it could be Revere who is sent down to the minors on Saturday when the team needs a fifth starter. The speedster is hitting just .268/.284/.297 this season and has been inconsistent on defense. Tony Gwynn Jr. is in center field again Wednesday. |

Ben Revere is not in the Phillies' lineup Tuesday. |
Revere sat out all weekend with a stomach virus, but his absence Tuesday night against the Marlins appears to be a straight benching. The 26-year-old speedster is batting just .268/.284/.297 in 36 games this season and remains homerless in 1,542 career major league plate appearances. Tony Gwynn Jr. will start in center field against Miami right-hander Anthony DeSclafani. |

Wed May 14 2014 | 16:36 | Ben Revere goes hitless vs. Angels |
Ben Revere went 0-for-4 at the plate in Wednesday's loss to the Angels. |
Revere wasn't the only one who struggled, as the Phillies managed just five hits off of Garrett Richards and the Angels' bullpen. The outfielder is hitting a respectable .268 with 12 stolen bases this season, so he's pretty much giving fantasy owners what they expected. However, he's drawn only three walks and has a .284 OBP, making him a poor fit for the leadoff spot. |

The stolen base was Revere's ninth with just one caught stealing thus far. He's been on fire at the plate of late, notching at least two hits in six of his last seven games. The multi-hit onslaught has raised Revere's average to .312 through 23 games. |

Ben Revere went 4-for-5 with a run scored and a steal in a 10-inning win versus the Dodgers on Tuesday. |
All four hits were singles, which is par for the course with Revere. The speedy but punchless outfielder is now slashing .300/.319/.329 through 18 games, a pinch above his career averages. Revere has never hit an MLB homer, but he's sixth in the NL with six steals after swiping 96 the past three seasons. |
