svtballa 101 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Was leading the MLB in RBI when he got hurt mid season. Now leading the MBL in RBI in the post season. Steals were non existant but his HR/RBI/Runs/AVG should all be elite of pretty damn close to elite. I personally will be a late first round buyer. Thoughts? Link to post Share on other sites
Fuzzy_Slippers 4,058 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 I would take him towards the end of the first round. Link to post Share on other sites

Thoughts? His upside for 2018 is the #1 fantasy player... then you factor in his age, his home park, his position, and his lineup protection... and there are very few players I'd rather have in a keeper-- or a redraft. Objectively I'd feel okay swapping Arenado for Correa straight up... but the dude with Correa is a huge Astros fan, and I'm a huge Arenado fan... so it's like what's the point? But in a big money league, where you put personal biases aside... I actually prefer Correa to Arenado, since 3B is soooooo much deeper, and I'm not convinced their offensive upside is all that different. Link to post Share on other sites
absknicks 3,012 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I don't really see #1 fantasy player upside given that he doesn't steal bags anymore. At least in traditional 5x5 format. Link to post Share on other sites

At least in traditional 5x5 format. Probably true, but the upside is hitting 40 bombs with a ton of RBI/Runs, hitting over 300 and maybe 10 steals at SS. Kind of like Tulo use to be except power is less scarce now. Link to post Share on other sites

parrothead 2,143 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 He will be someone drafted probably second half of first round in most leagues, but could easily see a full healthy year with uptick that puts him near the top 3-5 discussion for 2019. Link to post Share on other sites
XxxOilOverloadxxX 1,958 Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 what a shame for my league mates they won't get a crack at him....not having to worry about the wasteland that is SS in post Machado world is fun. KEEPER! LOSERS! SAD! Link to post Share on other sites
Magoo 1,600 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 The other thing to keep in mind is he is putting him big power numbers in spite of ground ball tendencies and only a slightly above avg power profile. To me, that means he still has another big level to reach. Health permitting I would be surprised if he doesn’t hit at least 35 HRs. Link to post Share on other sites

If he can get back to stealing 10+ bags, he could easily be a top 5 selection if everything goes correctly. He's a legit stud with the pedigree to match. Link to post Share on other sites
EmbargoLifted 915 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Would Correa owners/fans be happy with a Cal Ripken like prime? e.g. .300/.370/.500 line with 25-30 HR power, 1-5 steals, and 100 R/RBI ? Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, but I think he has the potential to be a better offensive player than Ripken. I can easily see Correa having a .320/.380/.540 line at some point. The only thing really stopping him from having a .900+ OPS is his BB%. If he can get it up to Harper or Trout territory (15%+), that would be fantastic. Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not an owner nor really a fan, but I'd be disappointed in 1-5 steals from him annually. Despite last year, I still believe he's capable of 15-20. Outside of 2013 in A-ball, he's been an fantastic base-stealer (73 steals, 14 CS in his pro career aside from 2013). Link to post Share on other sites

Baur10 2,228 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 I missed this guy. I've had him since he came up and I started to forget what it's like between the thumb injury and off season. Truly one if the best young players in the league. Link to post Share on other sites

b0nfire 412 Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 as long as he stays healthy i just can't see how he doesn't put it all together with a monstrous line .310 / 100 R / 32 HR / 110 RBI / 20 SB !! Link to post Share on other sites
jwblue 169 Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 This thread shouldn't have much activity this season. He is the second best player in baseball and there really isn't any debate or discussion to be had. Link to post Share on other sites
