PFA, Cole Tucker, COL Unlikely to finally emerge but at least hes in the right place. Ten games at first base. Between Clase and Diaz, I'd go the other way in a redraft league, but in a keeper format, I'll give the edge to the guy four years Diaz's youth. It may not be so in September, or July. This cost makes for an incredible discount for a guy likely to be drafted in Round 5 or so this year, but seeing as he's about to turn 30 and has major plate discipline issues, I question how long you'll get to savor said discount.

PFA, Drew Waters, KC 27.5% Ks in the minors are too many for a power hitter, and way too many for a speedster. This way at least makes it more fun to argue.

Will Brennan, CLE A great risk-reducer in mono leagues is to identify those hitters most likely to get more PAs this year.

His draft price will soar if he breaks camp with the Phillies and has already risen over 80 picks since Jeff Zimmerman did his breakdown back in mid-December. His Ks and walks are well-above average, he swings at strikes and not at balls, and is also a plus with his hard hits. The Reds have outfielders, but Benson may be the only one who can play center. And the 21-year-old fueled that hype by hitting 33 home runs between . Speaking of that, he is already dealing with some lat discomfort and the Guardians wont have any issues being conservative with the 26-year-old righty, which bumped him down a couple spots given his history.

Hell get his first taste of Triple-A after skipping it last year and there he will work to refine his stuff with a chance at returning to the majors in the summer. Conforto will do well to slug .450 with the ballpark haunting him, plus the Giants will jerk him around at least some. PFA, Alex Call, WAS I guess 54/54 is notable in 523 minor league games, especially without a big strikeout problem in the majors or minors. $9. $3, Trayce Thompson, LAD Really, the Dodgers thought they would win the World Series with Trayce Thompson in left field? Eric Karabell and Tristan H. Cockcroft debate who should be the first pitcher taken off the board in 2023 fantasy baseball drafts. The Os were happy to get him with the fifth overall pick in 2021 and probably plan to bring him up this year, so hes a spring watch for sure, and I mean late in the spring. Therefore, we dont want Pham in mixed leagues except as a hole-filler if he happens to be playing. $1, Akil Baddoo, DET Sure fooled me. If he picks up where 2022 left off, he will be in Triple-A after a few months and just a call away! Reserve A, Michael Toglia, COL Big switch-hitter, and a first rounder in 2019.

Lifetime .237/.296/.401 against lefties, which probably wont matter to the Tigers. For what its worth, Ward has more speed than he has shown. False notion that has pretty much gained acceptance: selective hitters hit for average, and its corollary that aggressive swingers do not. Baty has the hitting profile to find immediate success in the majors and he taps more into that 70 raw power; the upside is top shelf. If I knew the 14 SBs would repeat, hed rank higher because otherwise Springer is money to do what he does. He has no business batting leadoff with a career .314 OBP, but thats where they hit him most last year and they dont have anyone any better, so they probably will again.

For now, keep tabs on him and be prepared to pick him up as he nears his return sometime in the early summer. If he keeps raking in Triple-A, he can force his way up and they will find a spot for him. If every other surefire first-rounder needs to be kept, then so does Betts, who's not as old as you think he is, by the way. As a pure 80-grade runner, he could be a complete game changer on the basepaths even if the .240 ISO we saw in his debut doesnt maintain throughout a full season. He wasnt even very good, but the World Series announcers made it sound like the shades of Johnny Callison and Richie Ashburn melded in the ether above the Liberty Bell, and descended on the ballpark to seize destiny from the slavering jaws of the overdog. The PCL ate Jameson up thanks to a 1.7 HR/9 and .351 BABIP, but he was able to put a cherry on top of his season with a sharp September call-up. Follow Paul on Twitter @sporer and on Twitch at sporer. I dunno, if my model came up with that for 2023, Id call an editorial meeting.

Fantasy sports is a multi-billion dollar industry. $4. $8, Alek Thomas, ARI The 18% strikeouts look good in todays game, but they are still too many if the hitter lacks real power. This format more closely mirrors the on-field game, with long-term roster building, future projecting and management of player contracts. I wish I could say the same about his hitting, where smarts only get you so far. It's not as simple prioritizing the biggest discounts. If the Braves decide hes too much trouble they just might release him, if they cant trade him. PFA, George Valera, CLE Terry Francona and the organization have turned hard away from the strikeout. Edward Olivares, KC Is he ever going to play? On August 4, his slash was .317/.356/.460. Its always hard to read the spring training tea leaves, but knowing that the Cardinals will give Walker every opportunity to win a job out of camp pushed him up this board. Harris seems to have a problem recognizing balls and strikes, swinging at too many balls and not enough strikes. Tremendous talent but given his struggles at the upper levels, very probably at least a year away. Contract factors: Are there limits on the number of years you can keep a player and/or are there guaranteed contracts, and is there price inflation? I dont know why, but I have this exact same confusion with Grayson Rodriguez! By early February, our top 500 rankings for 55 mixed leagues will be available. $21 is a lot of roto money to me, but it probably wont get him. Not overmatched in the bigs at first glance. Granting that his endless injuries are flukes, still he chases, hes not a hard hits guy, he doesnt hit a lot of fly balls and his career HR/FB is 7.3%. Opp. Ji Hwan Bae, PIT Mostly a middle infielder in the minors, likely to get a chance to play center field. You cant bank on a full season but, at his current ADP of 145, you dont have to. 12 team 55 roto keeper league. He smashed 28 HR and stole 47 bases in 513 plate appearances across High- and Double-A but did so with a 31% K rate and just an 8% BB rate. Doesnt walk either, so dont get too excited. They knew he was fast and figured hed hit for average, but the power and discipline were suspect. $17. His ADP of 108 is likewise way too high for me, given his repeated soft-tissue injuries not to mention wrist and finger stuff. Gordon can yet be a star, all he needs to do is lay off one bad pitch per game. This risks his BA, but then Friedl is also a pull hitter and should pick up a few hits from no shifting. Thats my bet anyway. His Sprint Speed is still 95th%. Suffice it to say he would place even higher in rankings specific to points leagues, where his unrivaled capacity for innings makes him a clear first-rounder. Stone enjoyed a tremendous three-level season, posting a minor league-best 1.48 ERA at High-, Double-, and Triple-A in a total of 122 innings. Figure he bounces back some and still thats not much. Tristan H. Cockcroft provides his rankings for those playing in dynasty league formats. Maybe. Eric Karabell takes a look at all of the MLB action from over the weekend and what it means for fantasy managers going forward. Major League and Minor League Baseball data provided by Major League Baseball. Id consider him as a deep reserve in mixed leagues. Whatever doubts we had about sinking a first-round pick into him last year have since been refuted, and if you can keep this five-category threat for anything less, wowie. Hes not really good enough to bat cleanup but he does anyway. Reserve B. Jo Adell, LAA Their name is legion, baseball players whose value was greatest as prospects. As a hitter, Acua is not quite top rung but hes close enough to predict as a BA asset, and therefore BA disaster is only a remote possibility. This is 1980s style, an extreme green light for 2023. The extent of the discount is probably my second priority. Just 6-for-11 stealing the past three years, confirmed by a Sprint Speed nosedive to the 47th percentile. More evidence of a greater gap between Triple-A and the majors these days. Reserve B, Ben Deluzio, CHC Blazing speed, .290/.361/.412 in six minor league seasons, almost no chance to start but some chance to make the team and kick in a few bags. He may not be able to hit in the majors but has shown extra-base pop in the minors, takes his walks (10.3%) and he stole 52 bases in 129 games at the two higher levels, and hes 23. 6-keys: media/fantasynews/mlb/reg/free/stories. Better counts equates to better hitting. Senga did a brilliant job limiting hits (6.4 per 9) and missed plenty of bats with a mid-90s fastball and the fabled ghost forkball headlining his arsenal. Or as we used to say, half his hits went for extra bases. Klicken Sie auf Einstellungen verwalten um weitere Informationen zu erhalten und Ihre Einstellungen zu verwalten. PFA, Dalton Guthrie, PHI All prospects are later bloomers by one year due to Covid. Draft Kit Home Top 300 Overall Top 100 SP Updated Top 150 Hitters . He supports the two premium offerings with a slutter/slurve triple hybrid that plays as more of a cutter in the upper-80s register, a slider in the low-to-mid-80s register, and can be more of a slow curveball when he really dials down the velocity. Even if that ends up being nothing, Brown is the first man up for any injury and no team makes it through the season with just five starters these days. A .561 OPS vs. righties is especially alarming. I also consider how old the player is and how confident I am in his profile, though these are of lesser concern in a keeper league, which has tons of roster turnover every year, than a dynasty league, which has very little. No shifts can only help so much. He tore through Double-A (146 wRC+) and stayed strong in Triple-A (129) before the elbow flared up in late-July and cost him a month. Still a good glove wherever he plays, but playing him at shortstop is tempting the Peter Principle. But that line is mighty impressive, and it translated to .260/.330/.500 with 4/2 in 32 major league games. A bigger key is strikeouts, and that remains to be seen. Bader is perfectly capable of stealing 30 bases, indeed I might expect it if he hit seventh, but then he has yet to play a full season.

With an average or better hit tool, he should avoid the all-or-nothing power profile of teammate Bobby Dalbec. The bottom line for Yoshida could end up looking similar to new teammate Alex Verdugo or maybe closer to Justin Chois comp of Andrew Benintendi (sans the speed, as Yoshida had just 4 SB/600 PA). Reserve B, Nelson Velzquez, CHC Power appears to be developing, and has a little speed, but appalling strikeouts even in the minors. It should be no worse than 350 in our speed-crazed world. Id be remiss to not go a bit deeper on Nelson here. Even with better hitters behind him which is no sure thing hell have trouble topping 85. Play ESPN fantasy baseball for free. Reserve B, maybe. $11. Only a sore elbow could slow Mead down last year. Im hardly going to chase Gallo but hes worth a cheap shot somewhere, and if someone wants to give me 100-1 odds, Ill slap $100 on his chance to lead the majors in home runs. Christopher Morel, CHC Also qualifies at second base, with 18 games at third base and 13 at shortstop. He netted a 31% K rate at Double- and Triple-A along with a 50% GB rate that helped him to a 1.18 WHIP despite an elevated ERA of 4.25 in 112 innings. Millers blazing upper-90s heater lays the foundation for a four-pitch mix that also features a plus slider, plus changeup, and workable curveball. That said, Nelson is on the 40-man, had a successful debut (1.47 ERA, 0.82 WHIP, 15% K-BB in 18 IP), and is firmly entrenched in that fifth starter battle. If you land him, you hope hes leading the majors in home runs after a month, then trade him for 50 cents on the dollar. $5, but Im not at all sure Id pay it, certainly not until recovery is confirmed from his broken toe. It jumped another five points at Triple-A and while it was only weeklong sample, I do think it is indicative of the main issue he will have in the majors. 1 as one of the game's premier strikeout artists, but his poor control presents a level of downside that drops him a few spots on this list. The Tigers have openings but Davis is far from odds-on. While Miller wins with power, Stones plus to plus-plus changeup drives his arsenal. Its relative, not much difference in the roto standings, I daresay. $18, Anthony Santander, BAL I think maybe I like him too much, more than his .245/.300/.454 career deserves. He leaned on his two fastballs and premium slider while flashing a changeup and curveball. After earning that first buck, Charlie has made over $100M since. While RosterResource has Wesneski ticketed for Triple-A to start the year, he is firmly in the no. Suzuki had some trouble with slower stuff, but nothing fatal and hes hardly unique. $3, Stone Garrett, WAS Lots of power and some speed, but 52% fly balls and 32% Ks tell us that his BA is headed for a fall, possibly off a cliff. $9, Joc Pederson, SF I dont want him much coming off a .274 season, not a 45% FB hitter with 23% Ks who is a lifetime .237 hitter. They are going to be per-inning fantasy studs in 2022, and when played properly, a fantasy roster can thrive without the 175-200 inning monsters as long as you plan for it ahead of time.. Im a huge fan of Brown, and while he is currently penciled in as the no. Check out Skippers on YouTube for more Fantasy Baseball content. Still capable of helping us fill a hole. The 29-year-old righty inked a five-year, $75 million deal with the Mets after putting together a sterling record in 11 seasons as a part of the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks. That means all the relevant prospects get selected, which helps give us an idea of how the market views them. Unless youre in an OBP league, Id say no. Easier said than done, of course, but his defensive versatility pretty much guarantees 400 PAs. Tucker is not a big OBP guy so it makes some sense, but he only scored 71 Runs. Bellingers Heat Map tells the tale: he can only hit a pitch in his wheelhouse, and his wheelhouse is small. Figure hell bat ninth though, and anything better is gravy. Im hardly panting for him. Read more of our articles here. He's the most likely first-round pick other than Julio Rodriguez to be kept for something less, and he's well worth it, being nearly as strong as Aaron Judge but also five years younger. $8. $18, Oscar Gonzalez, CLE Free-swinger with power, so 19.6% Ks are a pleasant surprise, improving as he went, too. Fantasy Baseball Take a look at the game's inception and its "founding fathers," who never foresaw how their creation would take off and ultimately leave them behind. PFA, Garrett Hampson, MIA Also qualifies at shortstop, but he just cant hit. $1, Jos Azocar, SD Blazing speed that he has put to little use in the minors, with just a touch of pop. He led the majors in K/9 and basically every ERA estimator as a rookie, making him a no-brainer to keep with a late-round price tag even though he still has to prove longevity and durability. Minor league slash of .258/.328/.415 with a few steals is not impressive, but decent 17.4% Ks and more than a third of his hits were for extra bases. Tristan H. Cockcroft's 9-part "Playbook" lays out how to go from fantasy baseball novice to expert in one season. One way to secure an ace keeper on the cheap is to draft him the year he's recovering from Tommy John surgery, and while Glasnow has durability issues beyond that, he was straight fire after returning late last season. 1 overall, he is a popular one, and every other player in that discussion figures to be kept. Yes, Dalton Del. Yeah, he's 40, but he was the best pitcher in 5x5 leagues last year and is likely to be again. Prospects have become increasingly important to winning re-draft fantasy leagues. Not punchless but no real power. If he figures out the high minors, he could get the call this year, but itd likely be after the Trade Deadline so theres no reason to draft him at this point. Not safe from disappointment. Ty for the heads up, fixed it! $36. If you're looking for the 2022 fantasy baseball rankings and MLB projections, you have landed on the right page! Terry Francona threw him right into the fire against lefties, with respectable .745 OPS results, so Oscar is a virtual guarantee for more PAs in better lineup slots. $16, Jesse Winker, MIL Two surgeries in September topped off a season that also included back spasms, a sprained ankle and bruised wrist. PFA, Luis Liberato, SD 27-year-old lefty slugged .541 at El Paso, but strikes out a lot. Has some hitting ability, but its still questionable whether he has enough. Hes a good reserve pick in mixed leagues if you are speed-challenged, and even if not, as long as hes not an overload. Tristan H. Cockcroft digs deep into the numbers to present his annual "Kings of Command.". It's imperfect -- and, yeah, to some degree the "confidence" rating is just a way of tweaking the scores to my liking -- but there is no perfect. The 2023 fantasy baseball season is rapidly approaching, and if you're looking for a particularly enticing challenge in the new year, consider a dynasty league! The low AVG dropped the hype a bit on Casas despite the fact that it was clearly BABIP-fueled (or suppressed, as it were) given his palatable 24% K rate and even better 10% SwStr rate.

Ricky Tiedemann | LHP, TOR | 570 ADP Tiedemanns eye-popping debut (2.17 ERA, 0.86 ERA, 29% K-BB in 79 IP at A/A+/AA) has him firmly in the conversation for the best lefty pitching prospect in baseball and at least getting some consideration for the overall best. Its four starts at the end of the day, so little can be drawn from it, though the 25% K and 13% SwStr rates underscore his swing-and-miss upside. Reserve B, Jerar Encarnacion, MIA Big fella with a big K problem, plus he hits too many ground balls. Turns 32 in May and hes been around a bit, and still just 12% of his career PAs against lefties. You probably have your catcher for the next several here given the extent of the discount and the durability of the hitting profile, but Kirk may not have the power to measure up as a full-time DH if he ultimately winds up there. Reserve B, Pavin Smith, AZ Disappointing but hes not giving up, slashing .292/.462/.458 in the Dominican Winter League. Age 23, excellent speed, a 315-game minor league slash of .294/.373/.419, with 91 SBs in those 315 games. He's a bit like Cristian Javier in that his breakout coincided with the end of the juiced ball era, changing his fly-ball tendencies from a strength to a weakness, but he's even more at the league's mercy because he doesn't miss bats at as high of a rate. $7, Wil Myers, CIN Still dangerous against a lefty and still a good glove in right field. I dont know Marcell Ozuna. You can even look down your nose at me, wallowing in his filth should I decide the price is right. Youre guaranteed to get one of them, and you get the earlier pick coming back. On pure talent, only Rodriguez tops him and even then, its close. To get.
