Delino DeShields (OF, TEX) - 2016 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target ~210

CURRENT ADP: 235

ANALYSIS: Delino DeShields isn't quite on Billy Hamilton's level, but like Hamilton, he has a 100-SB season on his minor league resume. Hwever, unlike Hamilton, DeShields can actually hit. As a rookie, he posted a .261/.344/.374 line with 83 runs in 121 games, maintaining the double-digit walk rate he carried throughout his minor league career. He only stole 25 bases, but he was on a 50-steal pace before suffering a hamstring injury. Forty swipes are definitely on the table, as are 100 runs, if he keeps his spot near the top of the Rangers' lineup.

Stolen bases were more difficult to find on the waiver wire than usual last season. There's no guarantee that will continue, of course, but you might want to invest a little more in speed, just in case. If you're going to do that, though, why pay a premium for Hamilton, whose ADP is just inside the top 100? DeShields is barely a blip on the radar for most owners right now. Take advantage.
