BALLER MOVE: Target as 3B1
ANALYSIS: The Chicago Cubs may choose to wait two weeks to bring up Kris Bryant, giving themselves control over their top prospect through 2021. Bryant was Baseball America’s 2014 Minor League Player of the Year after hitting .325 with 43 HR and 110 RBI. Translating that success to the big league level is hard to do and even harder to predict, but Bryant has adjusted to every level of pitching he has faced. If he does struggle at first, be confident that he will make the necessary adjustments and continue to rake.
In early NFBC drafts, Bryant has an ADP of 102 and has been, on average, the 10th third baseman drafted. I would feel comfortable getting him anywhere between 120 and 150th pick in a re-draft league. I’d grab him earlier if it was a keeper or dynasty league. Once he’s called, expect good things.
