BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 45% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Drury has created a new, and somewhat surprising, fantasy profile to this point in the 2017 season. His average is over .300 thanks to a .384 BABIP. While that is quite a high BABIP, Drury has sprayed the ball to all parts of the field more frequently and also has the benefit of calling Chase Field home. There are some troubling aspects of his profile, however, as his swinging strike rate has jumped from 9.4% last season to 11.1% this season and his hard contact is down from 32.9% to 28.4%.
News that Chase Field is going to be using a humidor in the coming months will be another factor to monitor and is something that can reasonably be expected to negatively affect Drury’s power. However, given the multitude of early season injuries and upside that Drury carries, he is worth an add in deeper leagues.
