Hawpe's hot

The Rockies' Brad Hawpe finished up a torrid June with his eigth home run in Colorado's 15-8 loss to San Diego. Hawpe's season average is up to .260 after hitting well over .300 for the month. He batted just .218 in May and spent time on the disabled list.

Fantasy Impact: I heard somebody call Hawpe the left-handed Manny Ramirez in the offseason. Not quite, but he's pretty good when he's going well. It looks like he's solved what was keeping him from hitting the ball with authority. He's a good number two outfielder.
