Chase Headley (3B, NYY) - 2015 Fantasy Baseball Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target in 10th to 12th Rounds

ANALYSIS: Everyone tried to pry Chase Headley away from the Padres after his breakout season in 2012 in which he posted 31 HR, 115 RBI and 17 SB.

Headley struggled over the next two years, his average fly-ball distance dropping from 34.47 feet to 286.83 feet. His ISO (isolated power) also fell from .212 to a meager .130.

However, getting traded to the Yankees last season seemed to reinvigorate him. After batting just .229 over 77 games with the Padres, he hit .262 for the Yanks the rest of the way. In addition, his line drive percentage of 27.2% was the highest of his career. If he can continue this trend, he could raise his overall batting average closer to his career mark of .265. Plus, Yankee Stadium is much more of a hitter’s ballpark than Petco Field.

If he can come close to recreating his 2012 campaign, Headley could be a solid pick in the 10th to 12th rounds of your fantasy baseball draft.
