Fantasy Force 21 Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 My only wish with Stanton is that he can get that BA up in the mid .260's/.270's. Everything else he offers is pretty solid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Thenewwildone8 826 Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Stanton needs to be healthy first and foremost. I could see him having a .260/.340/.535 batting line. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ChicksDigTheOPS 2,496 Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 (edited) Giancarlo is rocking a new batting stance in the WBC. Love love love it. I've never paid up for him due to streakiness, swing-and-miss, and injury concerns but I really believe this is the year it all comes together. This is the change in approach/stance that has been needed. .263 -47-124 NL leader in slugging percentage Edited March 19, 2017 by ChicksDigTheOPS Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Always puts up .900-.950 OPS. The problem with him is his health. I prefer he doesn't try to change anything with his approach/stance. Highly doubt his stance has anything to do with his injuries.

I think the change will promote better consistency. The upside just got even higher. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IceGoat 326 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 (edited) Why do you guys insist a healthy Stanton cannot produce in runs? Projected over a full season: 2014 -- 99 runs 2015 -- 103 runs No one expects him to play every game but this underscores that a healthy Stanton can still be productive in that category.

2ndCitySox 4,654 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 So let's gauge his value. What OF would you take right before Stanton, and which OF right after? Assuming a standard league. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TrueToTheBlue 354 Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 (edited) Health is really the only thing to worry about with him. The bombs will be there, and he's hit much better at home then on the road in his career Edited April 8, 2017 by TrueToTheBlue Quote Link to post Share on other sites
