Utley went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's win over the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
The 38-year-old has turned back the clock recently, slashing .293/.388/.512 over his last 46 plate appearances. He has been seeing regular playing time at second base against righties while Justin Turner (hamstring) remains sidelined. The Dodgers' regular third baseman hasn't embarked on a rehab assignment yet, so Utley should continue to provide value for fantasy owners in the interim.

Utley is out of the lineup Sunday against the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Utley has been a regular at the keystone of late, making seven starts in a row. His numbers against opposing starter Jon Lester aren't great, however, as Utley is just 2-for-12 without an extra-base hit. As a result, Enrique Hernandez will get the nod at second base.

Utley went 2-for-4 with three RBI during Saturday's win over the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran has a run and four RBI through the first two games of the series against Chicago. However, with a .664 OPS for the campaign, Utley isn't moving the fantasy needle in the majority of seasonal leagues. He also should see a decrease in playing time once the Dodgers are back to full health.

Utley went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Friday's 4-0 win over the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Utley's second homer of the season opened the scoring for the Dodgers in the third, and came on the heels of his solo shot on Thursday against the Cardinals. The veteran infielder has been much better in May after a dreadful April, as he's now slashing .278/.365/.500 with two homers and nine RBI over 60 plate appearances during the month after hitting just .122 with one RBI in April

Utley is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Manager Dave Roberts has stacked his lineup with mostly right-handed bats to counter lefty Justin Nicolino. With Adrian Gonzalez back on the active roster, Utley will likely see most of his time at second base moving forward, perhaps as part of a platoon with Chris Taylor. Utley has made just three career starts at third base, so it's hard to imagine he will be a regular replacement for Justin Turner (hamstring) at the hot corner.

Utley went 2-for-2 with two RBI from a run-scoring single and sacrifice fly and also scored and walked once in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran has rebounded from an abysmal April in which he hit just .122 to post a .333 average in May. Utley has been squaring up on balls a lot more frequently, as he's boasting a 34.6 percent line drive rate and 51.8 percent hard contact rate over his 41 plate appearances during the month, although he's yet to hit a home run. However, his recent surge has given him some renewed value in deep formats, although his .216/.314/.311 line still has plenty of room for improvement.

Utley batted leadoff and went 1-for-3 with a run scored before being lifted for a pinch-hitter in the seventh inning of Wednesday's win over the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran infielder has been seeing regular playing time at first base against righties over the past couple of weeks, but that run is likely coming to an end soon as Adrian Gonzalez (back) nears his return from the disabled list. Even with the expanded role, Utley failed to bump his average above the Mendoza line, slashing an unsightly .188/.291/.290 in 79 plate appearances this season.

Utley went 3-for-5 with triple and an RBI groundout and a run in Thursday's 10-7 loss to the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran is now 6-for-9 with two doubles and three RBI over his last three contests, raising his average from .098 to a still unsightly .183 in the process. The 38-year-old infielder isn't much of a fantasy asset at this point in his career, but considering his serviceable 2016 in which he slashed .252/.319/.396 with 14 home runs and 52 RBI, he's certainly capable of more than what he's shown thus far.

Utley went 2-for-3 in Wednesday's win over the Pirates with a double and two RBI.
EDGE Analysis
Utley raised his average 30 points in this contest, albeit to a meager .145. It's been a tough start to the season for the veteran, but look for his average to creep back towards the .200s as he's been the victim of a .182 BABIP through 62 plate appearances.

Utley is not in the lineup Saturday against the Padres, David Vassegh of 570 LA Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
With the Padres sending southpaw Clayton Richard to the mound, Utley will give way to Chris Taylor at the keystone. Utley is hitless over his last five games (0-for-11) and has just five hits in 50 at-bats this season (.100).
