BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 33% of leagues
ANALYSIS: Chapman could end up being the most valuable Matt in Oakland’s starting lineup by the end of 2018, as the star defender also boasts a power bat yet to be recognized at the Major League level. Chapman’s 14 homers in 326 PAs is decent, but not enough to offset a zero in steals and a .234 average. However, he cranked 36 jacks in 2016 and had hit 16 bombs in just 204 Triple-A PAs prior to his promotion last year. He has a real shot at 30-35 homers, and a walk rate around 10 percent plus the astounding defense will keep him in the lineup through any cold streaks. Don’t just blindly extrapolate the MLB numbers from last year, there’s more in the tank!
