Rickie Weeks Activated From The DL

The Milwaukee Brewers activated 2B Rickie Weeks from the DL.

He'll go right back into the starting lineup tonight and play 2B.

Fantasy Impact: Get him back into your lineup. I'm not sure where he'll hit in the order. Leadoff was a great place for him with his speed and solid OBP, even if he won't hit for a high AVG. If it were up to me, I'd make the order Hart, Weeks, Hardy, Fielder, and Braun as the top 5. Hardy has been hitting 2nd, but with his power and run production capability, he'd make sense hitting 3rd. I wouldn't fault the Brewers for wanting to continue hitting Fielder 3rd as he's their best hitter, but the arrangement I suggested would work out just as well, and give them plenty of speed ahead of their power.
