Zack Gelof is a second base fantasy baseball draft sleeper, and an ADP draft value for 2024. Target Gelof as an undervalued 2B in fantasy baseball drafts.
BALLER MOVE: Target in drafts ~pick 126
CURRENT ADP: ~141
ANALYSIS: Selected by the Athletics in the second round of the 2021 MLB draft, Zack Gelof has the potential to become the next, great infield star. He has a unique combination of power and speed and has only begun showing the world what he brings to the table.
Gelof played his college ball at the University of Virginia and was one of the best to ever put on their uniform. He went 81 for 81 in stolen base attempts while in school and showed signs of not only consistency at the plate but also power potential. Upon his arrival in Oakland in the mid-summer of 2023, he quickly became the fastest player in A's history to reach six home runs when he launched a 409-foot blast on August 9.
This is getting absurd. Zach Gelof is delivering the best start to his career that I’ve ever seen an A’s player have. pic.twitter.com/dVaReqqbEK

Quickly catching the attention of fantasy baseball managers in need of help at a thin 2B position, he was picked up by those looking for help last year, and those lucky enough to swipe him up in keeper leagues should seriously consider making Gelof the foundation of your infield this upcoming season.
In only 270 ABs last year, the six-foot-three athlete has unusual mobility for a guy his size, compiling 14 home runs, 32 RBI, 14 SB, 20 doubles, and 72 hits in just 69 games played. He showed that he not only belongs on a major league roster but that he should be on fantasy rosters alike.
This draft season, after the top names are off the board, grab Gelof in the middle rounds. He will provide power, speed, and most importantly, consistency.
