Analysis

According to my rough estimates I only made a meaningful profit on 15 (50%) of my picks. You may think I didn’t make a profit with Witt but the fact he provided very good value. When drafting in the top 3-4 rounds protecting the downside is more important than upside. The fact he missed 20 games and still finished 32^nd overall is a profit.

The biggest stand out is raking in huge gains with Detmers, Baker and Burns. I remember in the draft I didn’t want Burns but he fell 20-40 picks below his ADP and I modified my plan and selected him.

In the preseason I projected Moreno to hit .281 with 16 homers and 75 RBI and 70 runs and 2 SB. He basically did exactly that but with 30 points more in the batting average. Sometimes you get lucky. He probably hits .285 next year but people will draft him thinking he’s a .295 hitter.

Wood was my 21^st hitter overall but his ADP had him 38^th. There was batting average risk but his hard hit rates were elite and he was hitting in a very good lineup. The biggest question is will he steal 20 bases again. I’ll probably hedge and project 15.

Every time I try to find cheap power it rarely works out. For cheap power I liked Spencer Torkelson, Munetaka Murakami, Willy Adames, Jake Burger, Kyle Manzardo, Daulton Varsho, Jac Caglianone, Matt Chapman and Ezequiel Tovar. Of the nine players only two delivered.  

Random note: Chandler Simpson finished the year as the 21^st outfielder but did he really provide 21^st value? I would say because a team would have had to have two 40-home run hitters to augment the zero home runs.
