BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 33% of Fleaflicker Leagues
ANALYSIS: According to StatCast, Grichuk’s exit velocity (the average speed of the ball off his bat) is second in all of baseball, behind some guy named Giancarlo Stanton. Put another way, this kid hits the crap out of the ball. The former first-round pick has muscled his way into the starting center field gig in St. Louis, posting an excellent .877 OPS with 10 homers and 23 more extra-base hits in just 216 at-bats. Somehow, he’s freely available in two-thirds of Yahoo leagues. Grichuk has been snapped up in all four of mine, so please – let me live vicariously through you. Pick this dude up now.
