The good Jacoby Ellsbury showed up Sunday night against the Yankees. The Red Sox speedy center fielder reached twice and stole a pair of bases -- including home plate -- in a 4-1 sweep-sealing victory. Ellsbury has been plagued by inconsistency this season, but his recent hot streak has him hitting .289.
Fantasy Impact: Fantasy owners might have to be resigned to the fact that Ellsbury may never shake his streaky nature. He suffered through a massive slump at the plate and on the bases in 2008, and just 10 days ago he was hitting .194. Ellsbury is up to 10 steals already in 2009, so it's hard to keep him out of the lineup, especially now. Ride the wave. You might be benching him again shortly.
