Ratings Boost Probability: High
-A.J. Pollock - After a slow start, Pollock has had an unbelievable turnaround. On top of hitting .340 over the last month, he has nine stolen bases and six home runs. Mark Trumbo was just traded as well so that just clears up even more space for Pollock. In other words, Pollock is now bonified in Arizona.
-Billy Burns - Burns has put in work as well over the last month. He's not hitting for as much power as Pollock, but he's got the average and steals to go along with a very low rating right now in The Show.
-Sonny Gray - Gray is young, he's top 10 in just about every pitching category out there and has only received a plus-one boost to this point in the season.
-Gerrit Cole - Everything I said about Gray also applies to Cole. His boost was a more aggressive plus-four, but he's still got room to be improved as he's probably the top pitcher in the NL so far.
-Mark Melancon - Melancon was a mess early in the year, but he's bounced back and should at least get back the ratings points he lost earlier in the year.
-Carlos Martinez - Cardinals players are getting love almost every week, but Martinez probably deserves to join the party as he's dominated over the last month. It also probably helps he was downgraded earlier in the season.
-Dallas Keuchel - Keuchel's peripheral stats are not as impressive as those of Cole and Gray (that groundball rate though!), but he's still doing amazing work this season. He's become a Gold already, but he's still got room to grow based on how he's pitching.
-Brian Dozier - He was in the May Topps 50 pack for top performers; he's top 20 in WAR; and he's just good so it's time to make him a Gold.
-Joc Pederson - Pederson hit some insane moonballs this week and just keeps chugging along.
Ratings Boost Probability: Moderate
-Jhonny Peralta - Peralta was upgraded a couple weeks back, but he's been super solid the last month overall and probably could be boosted further.
-Chris Archer - Archer was forgotten a bit after his amazing start, but his numbers still hold up against just about anybody's to this point in the season.
-Zach Britton - With Britton, I think some keep waiting for a major slip in his performance, but he continues to do great work in the bullpen. He probably deserves to get at least a plus-one boost and go Gold.
-Albert Pujols - Pujols is just hitting bombs right now. I don't know how much growth he has because of who he is already, but if he's going to get a boost it seems like this week might be the time.
-Gregory Polanco - He's still not hitting lefties, but he's destroying righties lately and still stealing bases.
-Trevor Rosenthal - Rosenthal has more or less been pure, concentrated evil as the closer for the Cardinals this season.
-Trevor Bauer - Bauer has continued to remind people he's not dead yet, and he's maybe on the cusp of another upgrade.
Ratings Boost Probability: Low
-Logan Forsythe - Forsythe dipped in ratings last week due to a position change from 2B to 1B, but he's been a nice surprise the last month for the Rays.
-Jason Hammel - Hammel was upgraded a couple weeks back, which is why I put him in this category. Still, he's been nothing but solid for the Cubs.
-Clay Buchholz - His numbers have been outrageous the last month. I'm just not sure if he fits the mold of being young enough anymore to get a boost after a good month of starts.
-Eduardo Rodriguez - Sticking with the Red Sox, I'm not sure if Rodriguez has enough starts yet, but he's certainly been awesome so far.
-John Axford - Axford has revitalized himself as the Rockies closer. But again, with history in mind, I'm not sure how much of a boost he will get.
-Chris Sale - I just don't know how often Diamonds get boosts more than anything. Guys like Goldschmidt I thought deserved upgrades and haven't really gotten them so I'm not sure a Diamond pitcher will get them either. But if a Diamond pitcher is deserving right now it's Chris Sale.
-Dellin Betances - He gave up an earned run this week, but I think he can be forgiven as it was his first all season.
