White Sox
Hagen Smith
ADP 640
Smith turned some heads this spring with a 47% K% and a 16.4% SwStr%. It was all of 17 batters faced, but the stuff looks very good.
A 96mph fastball with a high Stuff+ slider. And that kind of SP upside is something the White Sox desperately need. They could be a half decent lineup this year, but their rotation is no better than third-worst in the league. So we might see some Hagen Smith this summer, and he could quickly become the White Sox ace.
Andrew Benintendi
ADP 400
There’s no way that Benintendi does something this year to have people begging to get him on their fantasy teams. But I also think it’s fair to say that he’s better than an ADP 400 outfielder. The guy can hit bombs. He’s hit a home run every 23.2 PAs over these last two years. And this spring, he has a 22% Brl%. He has sold out for power, and sometimes that’s all you need on a fantasy team. Let’s get some respect on Benintendi! Could be a pretty decent RBI season for him.
