svtballa 101 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Really no thread already!?! I can see a 75/20/75/10 .295 line from him this year. At his ADP I'm all in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

At his ADP I'm all in. In looking at orders on RR, I am intrigued by the fact he is hitting 5th, I mean if he stays healthy (which for him is a big if) hitting in the 5 Hole with guys like Correa, Altuve, Bregman ahead of him, honestly no reason that cant be like a 90 RBI season. The questions are: * health - been hurt most seasons * Power - throwing out the 30+ HR season, it seems like he is more in the 15ish range, which if he doesnt run much, which at 31 trying to stay healthy? * Steals - is it 5 or 10 and how does that combine with power.

Philoumenos 363 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 To add to the above questions, he had some flags on his LHP numbers, running a pretty high BABIP among other things. He could be pretty good, but maybe you maximize him in daily leagues on a matchup basis the most? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
esoomer 118 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Im taking a flier on a guy batting 5th in the Astros lineup, smashing it this spring, better against lefties so far, .357 in 48 PA's. Kind of like an Adam Eaton overlook situation IMO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Baseball Jonze 361 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 In positional OF leagues he qualifies as LF, CF and RF as well, he's a good 4th/bench OF if nothing else. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteSoxFan4Life 98 Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 He's the kind of guy that can help you win a championship, especially in big leagues or AL only leagues. He's not the stud that propels you over the top. But he's the vanilla guy you get with a good adp that has a low cieling but a high floor. He's Melky Cabrerra all over again. Plug him in , get above average production. Use earlier draft picks on high ceiling guys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FISH ON 492 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 (edited) They've been using the DTD tag for injuries as well as illnesses for a while now, that's all, he's feeling under the weather, sick, so he's day to day...could potentially pinch hit if needed though.....

the real donny baseball 266 Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 I haven't looked since last week,but I think he has 3 LHPs this week.It'd be interesting if they toss him on the DL for however many minutes it is this year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

svtballa 101 Posted April 23, 2018 Author Share Posted April 23, 2018 If he stays in the 4hole for the year we are looking at not only a great season but one of which he brings great value on where he was drafted. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ecofolux 242 Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Anyone buying into him for the rest of the season? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
handyandy86 2,451 Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 I guess it depends on how deep your league is. Reddick to me is the quintessential streaky hitter - every year he goes through a couple heaters that are hotter than hot, and everyone thinks he's turning into an all star. But then those heaters are also followed by weeks of very poor production. I think Reddick can be useful in fantasy, but you just have to know this is what to expect, and use him for his hot streaks and sit him otherwise. He always ends up with OK counting stats, but if you can effectively get 75% of those stats in 30% of the season while he's hot, and then get better numbers the rest of the time out of someone else, he could be good value. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
