Devon Travis (2B, TOR) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues / Draft Target Late

OWNED IN: 8% of Fleaflicker Leagues

ANALYSIS: Acquired from Detroit in exchange for Anthony Gose this offseason, Travis arrived north of the border as one of the best contact hitters in the minor leagues, hot off the heels of a stellar campaign in which he batted .298/.358/.460 with 10 home runs and 16 steals in 441 plate appearances in Double-A.

The Ryan Goins era is likely over in Toronto, with the 24-year-old Travis reportedly the front-runner to man the keystone for the Blue Jays out of spring training. What makes Travis so appealing in deeper formats is that he isn’t going to be a batting average liability and is going to be a factor in one of the best lineups in the game. Fantasy owners looking to upgrade their middle infield spots should be all over Travis in the late rounds or off the waiver wire.
