BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 155
CURRENT ADP: ~206 overall
ANALYSIS: There's no mystery as to fantasy owners' trepidation toward investing in Eaton this year. In his first two seasons with the Nationals, Eaton has suited up for a mere 118 games thanks to a torn ACL in 2017 and last year's ankle issues.
There isn't really any compelling reason to consider him more injury prone than any other player, though, given the nature of those injuries. The 30-year-old didn't look any worse for wear in his 95 games last season, during which he hit .301/.394/.411 with five home runs, nine stolen bases, and 88 R+BI.
Eaton will lead off a Washington lineup that still appears fearsome despite the loss of Bryce Harper, which makes 90+ runs a realistic full-season output. Paired with the high average and 25 HR+SB, that's terrific value after pick 200.
