Analysis: Eligible for arbitration for the first time, Davis gets $3,125,000, six times the $506,690 he earned last year when he hit .227 with 32 homers and 90 RBIs. He had asked for $3.7 million when players and teams swapped figures last week and had been offered $2,825,000. |

Analysis: Davis, whose average dipped to .158 in June, ended up at .227 with 32 homers and 90 RBIs. "You look at the power numbers and RBI numbers, and I'm there," he said. "But I don't consider myself a .220 hitter. Hopefully I get a chance to prove next year that I can do better." |

Analysis: Davis, who now has a career-best 30 homers, got off to a horrendous start after missing much of last season with an ankle injury. He was diagnosed with a likely case of Valley Fever during spring training and didn't lift his batting average above .200 for good until July 4. Still, he has three multihomer games this year, including a three-homer game on July 28 at Arizona, and has connected 18 times since the All-Star break and leads the team with 88 RBIs. |

Analysis: While his .223 average leaves much to be desired, Davis now has 24 homers and 70 RBIs. He could be pretty undervalued heading into next year, when he figures to hit closer to the .271 mark he posted over the 2010 and '11 seasons. |

Analysis: Davis is up to 22 homers on the year. He's been a major disappointment, but like Adam Dunn, still has the ability to take advantage of mistakes and occasionally help fantasy owners. Seventeen of his 22 homers have come on the road, most in the NL, so the pressure of playing in the New York spotlight has negatively affected him at home. |

Analysis: Davis' awful season has been noted by the New York media throughout this dismal campaign. But there's a silver lining for fantasy owners who may be able to pick up the first baseman on the cheap next year on the slim chance he turns around his career. It wouldn't be much of a gamble since it's hard to imagine Davis hitting worse. |

Analysis: He became the ninth Mets player to hit three homers in a game, all on the road. Carlos Beltran was the last to do it on May 12, 2011, at Colorado. |

Analysis: While Davis' .205 average on the season leaves much to be desired, it doesn't tell the whole story. The slugging first baseman has actually proven plenty productive of late, batting .309 with seven long balls and 28 RBIs in his last 24 games. |

Analysis: Davis came in hitting .141 after batting .302 in 36 games last year.
