He should have a few more years of prime production left before his stolen bases dry up the deeper he gets into his 30’s as he is slowing down a little bit. He simply did what he’s done his entire career, which is more or less be an above average player in every facet of the game. 2023 Projection: 8/3.67/1.28/156 in 140 IPįrancisco Lindor NYM, SS, 29.5 – Lindor was one of my top buys in 2022, ranking him 23rd overall in my 2022 Top 1,000 Rankings and closing his blurb by writing, “Lindor is an easy buy this off-season.” As expected, that is exactly how it played out with Lindor bouncing back to finish as the 10th best fantasy player in baseball ( Razzball Player Rater). I’ll be going after him regardless of league size. Like Megill, there is no guarantee he wins a rotation spot, but he’s a no brainer target. ![]() He throws a 5 pitch mix and keeps the ball on the ground with a 49.4% GB%. His slider in particular popped, putting up the 4th highest whiff% amongst starters at 47.9%. 2023 Projection: 8/3.78/1.21/153 in 140 IPĭavid Peterson NYM, LHP, 27.7 – Peterson’s velocity was up on all of his pitches (93.7 MPH fastball) and it led to his whiff% exploding to near elite levels at 30.2%. The Mets 2023 rotation is unsettled, so there is no guarantee he wins a rotation spot out of camp, but he’ll inevitably get another shot at some point. He returned in September in a bullpen role and the fastball was still up over 95 MPH. ![]() He was in the midst of not only backing up his strong 2021, but taking the breakout to another level before a biceps and shoulder injury put a halt to it. ![]() He has plus stuff (95.7 MPH), plus swing and miss ability (27.6% whiff%), and plus control (6.5% BB%). Tylor Megill NYM, RHP, 27.8 – Megill was one of my top cheap pitcher targets in 2022, and I’m going back to the well in 2023. Use deGrom’s advanced age and injury shortened seasons to your advantage. It’s not like young pitching is really any safer, as young pitchers are arguably more risky than older guys. He could easily have another 5 elite years in the tank, and why not 10. Both his 20 have been injury shortened seasons with a UCL and shoulder injury, but I think those numbers speak to themselves as to how the arm was feeling. He just put up an absolutely silly 42.7%/3.3% K%/BB% with a 0.75 WHIP in 64.1 IP. deGrom is in that super elite class, and he doesn’t have to deal with standing strong in the pocket with an unprotected blitz descending upon him. He’s 45 and he has 300 pound, sub 5.0 forty guys trying to take his head off. Jacob deGrom NYM, RHP, 34.10 – deGrom is 34 years old, but he is in that tier of elite athlete that could continue to play at a high level into their 40’s. He should be the top closer off the board. Diaz is not just a one trick pony though, he also induces with contact with a 85.5 MPH EV against which was in the top 4% of the league, and he doesn’t have any control problems with an above average 7.7% BB%. ![]() The highest ranked starter on that list is Spencer Strider at 9th overall. His career 40.3% K% is the 2nd best mark in the history of baseball, behind the man who he just unseated as the top closer, Josh Hader (43.2%).
