Reynaldo Lopez is a 2023 fantasy baseball draft sleeper at RP, and is an ADP draft value. Target Lopez as an undervalued RP in fantasy baseball drafts.
BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 300
CURRENT ADP: ~475 overall
ANALYSIS: Once a starter, now a reliever, instant eyeballs emoji from me. You're telling me there is also a great chance that he starts the season in a closer committee with a 32-year-old fresh off a 1.40 WHIP campaign? Let's upgrade that up to the fire emoji. Unfortunately, there is a void at the top of the White Sox bullpen after it was announced Liam Hendriks is battling Lymphoma (prayers!) and Reynaldo Lopez is fresh off an impressive first season as a full-time reliever.
Across those 65.1 innings, ReyLo rocked a 2.76 ERA and 0.95 WHIP while racking up six wins and 63 punchouts. The strikeout numbers are a bit meh, but he certainly made up for it with a minuscule 4.0 BB%. The ChiSox also still have former FrankenAce highlight Aaron Bummer and Joe Kelly in the pen, so I'm certainly not banking on Lopez ever seizing the closer role for himself in 2023. But realistically, just give us last year's production (which looks quite sustainable) with even just 6-10 saves and holy value, Batman.
