BALLER MOVE: Target ~225
CURRENT ADP: ~263
ANALYSIS: Drury opened the season with some flash by hitting four homers each in April and May with respective batting averages of .294 and .283, but then dealt with some injuries and didn’t have an everyday job in a crowded Arizona lineup. He will now hold down the keystone position in hitter-friendly Chase Field, largely thanks to a wild September that saw him slash .357/.417/.633 – making him one of 11 hitters to slug over .630 in the month. Now, if the 24-year-old can roll that momentum over into a starting gig in 2017, then September’s 40% hard-hit rate could flourish into a 25-homer campaign rather easily. A 30-homer ceiling isn’t out of the question considering he also smacked 31 doubles last season alongside the 16 homers, especially when viewing his spray chart in Chase Field.
