BALLER MOVE: Target ~180
CURRENT ADP: 196
ANALYSIS: On the surface, Dylan Bundy wasn’t anything special in 2017. His 4.24 ERA looked very average and his 8.1 K/9 was pretty pedestrian during a time when so many seem to be in double digits. However, this was a step forward for the former first rounder that put him firmly on top of the post-hype sleeper list.
Bundy made strides in the second half, upping his strikeout rate to 9.7 K/9 and improving his command. He threw more first pitch strikes (from 58% in the first half to 62% in the second half) and raised his swinging strike rate to 14%. Remember, this is a pitcher who missed significant time his first few seasons after being drafted by the Orioles fourth overall in 2011, so his development is just catching up. Bundy is someone worth taking a gamble on if the price is right.
